Kattegat surf trip, kind of...

Just spent three weeks in Denmark. The Kattegat is the large body of water between Jutland and Sweden and is one hour north of Copenhagen by train. My wife and I visited some Santa Cruz friends who have a summer house there. Here’s several pics for your viewing pleasure.

Wind from the west produced somewhat rideable 1 and 2 foot waves. Sorry I didn’t have my mat. I could have shared some waves with a lone boogieboarder who was trying to catch waves wearing shoes.

The next day a warm wind came from the east and brought temperatures in the high 20’s, low 30’s (celsius). Pushed a clean 4 to 6 inch swell - complete with sets - towards the little sandbars inside swimming lagoons.

about to get shacked!

this one swung wide

local groms showed up

hundreds of waves like this went unridden

Several days later in Copenhagen I couldn’t help thinking about Kokua for some reason

Hej hej

(See you later)

Those waves are almost as big as our summer/spring average here on Maui. Seen bigger waves at Salton Sea! Overhead; if you are laying on your back in the sand. Heard the hash and the chicks are great though.
