“ The first day was fantastic! In order to benefit from the best conditions, we decided with Aude, Manutea and Maiko Mou, our photographer, to wake up at dawn to be the first on the water. We didn’t need to take the plane; in fact we had the chance to put the complete quiver of F-One boards and paddle on our boat. It was ready for a circumnavigation adventure around Tahiti.
We got whole trifecta: idyllic waves, blue sky with sun and breeze. It was definitely time to surf the Pacific Ocean! Glassy water with waves like they were painted by a painter, it was wonderful. Impatient, Manutea took his Madeiro 7’7 board and was over the side. It was so appealing; Aude and I joined him on water at 5:30 A.M. We were completely alone and had the opportunity to surf together and enjoy this amazing moment. Well we shared it with some fishes and turtles… With such transparent water you don’t need anything to see the fauna and flora that grow under your feet.
