Early June, we had the opportunity to go for a build in the lovely western france. Flo and Biff of the Element called Water surfcamp in Soustons digged a big hole in the sand. And our mission was, to fill it with smooth crete.
We packed a bag full of trowels and squashed ourselves in an EasyJet plane heading west.
The result is pretty smooth and funny to skate. And the camp is in such a lovely house, including a bar with indoor miniramp, a big steel miniramp in the camping area, and our nice little bowl.
It were 3 days of concrete in the burning french sun, strange crete mix by the factory but in the end we succeded! The camp is definitely worth a visit. And there are so many more skateparks in the area!
