A Snow Trip to a powder paradise
17 February – 2 March 2008
Guided by a passion and desire for discover, four snowboarders from the Rip Curl Pro Team will set out in Search of undiscovered powder and unmatched adventure: Abkhazia.
A self-proclaimed Republic of 8,600km2, bordered to the north by Russia and to the south by Georgia, Abkhazia is split in two by the immense Caucasus mountain range and lies open to the Black Sea. The contrast between lagoons, palm-trees, huge beaches and snow-covered slopes offers up many unexpected opportunities…
This snow trip will take the riders to the heights of Mount Elbrouz (5,602m), then send them down hill to the totally virgin powder descents of the amazing Caucasus.
A Surf Trip to the Fjord-Lands!
5-30 April 2008
Four surfers from the Rip Curl Pro Team will set off on an extraordinary expedition to chase the most northerly waves in the world, which break on the Lofoten Islands.
This archipelago, which belongs to Norway, is considered thanks to its geography, as one of the most breathtaking on the planet! Situated to the north of the Arctic Circle, it’s one of the best surf spots in the country. The islands form a stunning combination of snowy peaks, protected bays, beaches and immaculate open spaces.
In winter, the temperatures can drop to -35 C and the sun never rises! In the intense light of spring, the riders will surf unridden waves in crystal-clear water at the foot of these majestic fjords.
