The Soul Factor
“Is there any soul left in surfing?" It’s been a common question in the surfing world from the very beginning. The very word “soul” has a different effect on every surfer. For some it inspires the feeling of everything that is right with our pursuit. It expresses the connection between surfer, surfboard and the wave.
