Nathan Florence’s latest trip has taken him to the northern coast of Scotland, and by all accounts it’s been a trip for the ages. He’s found frigid slabs all over the place and at least one possibly unsurfed break. However, the craziest part of the whole journey, so far, is he’s been doing all of this with borrowed boards. In a situation many surfers are all too familiar with, a careless airline temporarily waylaid not only Florence’s boards, but basically the rest of his possessions as well. Now, the return of his gear should allow him to tap the full potential of the North Sea.
Before the return of his equipment, Nathan went for a solo session at a little slab left. With his wife Mahina behind the camera, Nathan shredded one last time on those borrowed boards. “Beautiful day out here. Sunny, which is rare, hard offshores and the waves are pumping,” he summarized.
