Indy from Spain

“Last 2013 was horrible, no waves, nothing; but since November till today(2/20/2014) we've had non-stop waves with good conditions, many times with perfect conditions. Maybe, only five days without waves. Time ago, this was the normal season but, last years everything has changed!!!”
