    Jose from Spain
    “Los locales mayores peludos y gordos que van de pros por la vida con la edad que tienen (cincuentas)ya podrian aprender modales. Miradas de perros cuando has pedido disculpas por saltar una ola que ni siquiera llegaban. Menos mal que son unos poquitos solo. La humildad no la conocen ni en pintura
    Los niñatos y niñatas q llevan 2 añitos en el surf remando con cara de Slaters tambien me ponen nervioso. El surf da asquito y llevo mas de la mitad de mi vida en él. A pasarlo bien señores, que ésto es un deporte sano. Las gilipolleces para el futbol.”
