Back in February 2019, while Tristan was training in Portugal, we saw a promising week of swell for Hossegor’s best sandbanks. We called the man, and a day later he was already in France making some damages and getting his own taste of the French lifestyle in between surfs.
Every day was no different from the last: frozen windscreen in the morning, chemtrails from dusk till dawn and Tristan hunting for heavy close-out sections for hours on end.
