After walking through the hail and torrential rain today, last weeks trip to Morocco felt like a life time ago!
Last Saturday I was lucky enough to join the Tiki crew on a trip to the land of the right handers and camels that is Morocco. Armed with a huge quiver of the bamboo and carbon latest technology boards, we boarded the plane at Gatwick to leave the cold weather behind.
Arriving at Taghazout, I was amazed to rock up at the luxury La Source apartments, at the end of Killer point. This trip was far different to my normal Moroccan experiences, but I wasn't complaining one bit!
The swell forecast showed a smallish swell running all week, with super light winds, but with the large amount of North in the swell we knew we would be struggling to score the points epic. I think all travellers to Morocco thought the same about the points and we managed to surf Killers nearly everyday glassy and empty.
A long trip 200km south one day saw us score pretty epic right handers. And allowed the Tiki guys to fully test the new boards and suits. Everyone was raving about the new Zepha suits and so far I'm bloody stoked with mine!
At this right hander, Tim Heyland (Mr Tiki) was sitting out back waiting for the bombs and dare I say it for an 'old' boy he was charging. Plenty of rum was drunk and epic stories were exchanged which kept everyone entertained, the week flew by and everyone is eager to head back.
looks nice mate,my gal is from morocco so i will be going there in the new year to surf ..great pics !!
