WHEELS & WAVES: BACK TO OUR ROOTS

 

As every year at the same time of the year for the past 8 years, the Wheels and Waves will be launched next Wednesday in Biarritz. 5 days dedicated to surfing, skateboarding, music, art and of course, custom motorbikes.

This year, for it's 8th edition the Wheels and Waves is going back to its roots and Salt Water is proud to be partner of the event. We do not need to tell you again how much fun this event is. We’re talking five days centred on classic or custom motorcycles, surfing and skateboarding and the culture that goes with it: music, visual arts and other forms of expression.

This year, surfing will have more space thanks to the « Garage Shaper Exhibition », a surf contest where shapers will ride their own boards, only under 7ft. Each shaper/surfer will also be judging the contest.

Vissla will also sponsor the “Shaper Caravan” that will be located in the heart of the village. Famous shapers from all over the world will come to do live shaping sessions and introduce you to the art of building surfboards.

Other important news: that’s the moment we chose to release our Volume 2. Make sure you guys come to our stand to grab yourself a copy and say Hi !

If you still hesitate to come, here are few pics from last year that should help convince you that next week, the place to be is in Biarritz !
