We are already deep into the summer season and this year we are also exploring the beauty of the Adriatic coast, its towns and islands, popular and less popular locations, and the most beautiful beaches and bays. The delta of the Neretva River is known above all for its numerous mandarin plantations and delicious watermelons. In recent years, it has also become a real kitesurfing center. Kiting in Croatia is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a summer kite destination in our immediate vicinity.

Electric boards come in handy if we don't have kite equipment, a motor boat or meter waves. With the help of electricity, even a calm water surface can be turned into an excellent training ground for increasing adrenaline. Awake Rävik is another board that 'plows the fallow'.

NLand is a paradise for surfers. There are always waves here. There is no fear that there won't be waves or that they won't be high enough. Here, on the coast of the city of Austin (USA), every day there are thousands of waves adapted to the knowledge and experience of the surfer, just waiting to be ridden. No more looking at the sky and the horizon. NLand lets you customize your waves! Namely, NLand is an artificial lagoon that creates waves by itself.

Dronsurfing - kitesurfing with a drone https://citymagazine.si/en/dronsurfing-kite-with-a-drone/ Wed, 14 Sep 2016 06:02:19 +0000

Forget paragliding. There's drone kiting. Today, drones can take extraordinary aerial shots, deliver packages and compete with each other, and now you can also use them for kite flying. Forget the parachute and the wind you depend on for kitesurfing and let yourself glide over the surface of the sea with the help of the Alta 8 (Freefly) drone, which is primarily intended for carrying heavy video equipment, but is so strong that it can also tow a person.

Alison Teal: Surfing in close proximity to lava https://citymagazine.si/en/alison-teal-surfing-in-close-proximity-to-lava/ Thu, 11 Aug 2016 06:11:42 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=247510

Adventurer Alison Teal, also known as the female version of Indiana Jones, became the first woman in history to surf in close proximity to an erupting volcano. Amazing footage comes from Hawaii, more precisely from the immediate vicinity of the Kilauea volcano, which is one of the most active volcanoes in the world and has been active for over 30 years (since 1983). Its lava often flows into the sea, and it was Alison Teal who took advantage of this incredible scenery for stunning photos. They were captured by underwater photographer Perrin James.

One thing is clear when looking at Teahupo'o in Tahiti from the air - surfing or "surfing" in French Polynesia is no joke. In drone footage, cameramen Brent Bielmann and Eric Sterman highlight the dangers and beauty hidden in the waves on a small tropical island.

Onean - an electric surfboard that doesn't need waves https://citymagazine.si/en/onean-electric-surfboard-that-doesnt-need-waves/ Mon, 24 Aug 2015 05:03:41 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=178686

Waves. The eternal variable for surfers on the water. One time they are too big, the second time they are too small, the third time they are not there. We recently wrote about the surfer paradise Snowdinia, a reservoir lake with artificial waves that carry surfers up to 150 meters and remove many variables from the equation. What if we told you that you can now take the waves out of the equation? That you can also surf on the Slovenian coast, whether there are waves or not? This is what the Onean electric surfboard offers, which is ideal for all those who don't have the patience to wait for the right wave and would like to glide across the surface of the water wherever and whenever they want.

Snowdinia – a paradise for water surfers with artificial waves that carry you as much as 150 meters https://citymagazine.si/en/snowdinia-paradise-for-surfers-on-water-with-artificial-waves-that-travel-as-much-as-500-meters/ Sun, 16 Aug 2015 05:51:35 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=178464

Surfing is closely related to the weather, so every surfer regularly looks at the sky, or better, at the horizon, and looks out for suitable waves. From now on, they will no longer have to get up early for a perfect "session", adapt to the weather, tides and other things they cannot control. The paradise for surfers is no longer Morocco, nor Australia, the mecca for wave lovers is now Snowdinia in Wales, a lake with artificial waves that carry you as much as 150 meters!

Surf destinations: Surfing the waves in the land below the Alps https://citymagazine.si/en/surfing-on-the-waves-in-the-land-below-the-alps/ Tue, 14 Jul 2015 04:20:27 +0000

The beginning of summer, vacation, packing and going to the sea, mostly to the Croatian coast. This is the classic formula of a Slovenian holiday. But where can a surfer or someone who would like to learn to surf the waves go? Here, we should not mix windsurfers and real surfers who catch waves on the open sea. Few people know that there are much more of them in Slovenia than it seems at first. Even less that there is even a surf scene with clubs, courses and sports federations and competitions. The first and most successful Slovenian surfer is the Argentinian Slovenian Jože Žurga, who caught his first wave in the early 1960s. He is considered a legend of surfing in South America, but unfortunately the gentleman was not a pioneer on the local scene and on the nearby Adriatic coast. Thus, according to the Surf Federation of Slovenia, the boys who set up the first surf school and club in 1999 - Ujusansa - are considered the pioneers of organized surfing at home.

Although the word surfing has taken on a new meaning in the last two decades, displacing even the original from the top spot, surfing, whether on the water or online, remains a leisure activity that is much more difficult to master than clicking and scrolling a wheel on a mouse. And since surfing is one of the coolest sports, even celebrities can't resist its charms, even if they are a mismatched 'couple' with a board.

Tin Barbo Gruden came to Portugal just over four years ago, as an Erasmus student, and stayed there. Surfing, the ocean and the Portuguese way of life inspired the creation of the Surfgasm Lisbon Surf Club, the Erasmus Housing Lisbon agency, which rents out apartments to students, travelers and tourists, and the cultural association ArtCasa, which connects and represents the cultures of countries such as Portugal, Cape Verde, Italy and Slovenia . If we are in a hurry in Lisbon, Tin is the man who will open his doors wide and show us Lisbon through his eyes.

Piglet Babe may be a movie star, but in Kam he has some serious competition for the title of the most popular piglet in the world. Because what could be cooler than a pig surfing? We have known for a long time that pigs are very intelligent animals, but that they are so motorically capable is something new. Ever since Kama discovered Sandy beach in Hawaii, surfing has been inseparable. Because he is not waiting for a full trough but for ideal waves. And a video taken with a GoPro camera has the proof.
