"Last Tuesday, La Gravière in Hossegor was a resounding success. After weeks of storms and a calm winter, everything finally went well: perfect swell, offshore winds and firm sandbanks."

"The result was one of the best days here in more than 10 years," says David Berthet of Ripitup, author of the video.

The sea was smooth and hollow, sending out one tube after another.
