Each trip and episode demands a lot of work and preparation. It also means ideas and plans that we realize at the end. However the dream about distant Kuril islands has always had special significance and place in the list of our trips. If you are familiar with applied oceanography, you should probably know that the best potential for waves in Russia is on the Kuril Islands. Not every person gets a chance to visit this place and that is why such journey is so attractive.
More than two years of planning, researching and finding relevant information went into this trip.
During this time we even managed to make some arrangements and to put a surf spot on the map of MSW website. Right after that we could see that waves on Kuril islands are twice as big as in Kamchatka at any given time. Our expectations skyrocketed.
На трудные путешествия по России можно подсесть. Вроде бы сложности и препятствия должны нас останавливать, а мы все мчим вперед.
В нашу очередную поездку мы решили отправится туда, где нет дорог и куда не ступала нога серфера, на полуостров Рыбачий.
Оказалось, что дорога туда есть, но такая, что местами было ощущение, что мы просто не доедем. Броды, спуски и подъемы по всем видам поверхностей.
