BRU's over GNUs

German Pro Leon Jamaer fell into a tight-knit crew that worked tirelessly to skip the crowds and milk every drop of rideable ocean and daylight in a month-long trip to South Africa. Story Leon Jamaer Movie Filmed and Edited by Julian Robinet / Mast Destruction Productions and Johannes Foerster

My brother Henrik, Leif and I arrived in Cape Town for Christmas. But it seemed that half of the European windsurfing population arrived at the same time as us, also desperate to avoid the harsh northern winter.

Every time we drove out to Sunset Beach it was always the same picture. Stacked car parks and slack, choppy waves being ridden by at least 3 sailors at a time. 

We had just one month before returning to reality in Germany, so our mission was to score the best surf in the largest quantity possible.
