Sometimes when you visit somewhere new, you barely get to scratch the surface...
On May 23, @mathea_olin sets sail again in Transports of Delight II, a film about chasing new waves, mastering the sea, and finding freedom on the fringes.
Live #TheSearch.
I think this is one of my favourite surf photos I’ve ever gotten.
This photo captures how beautiful and powerful this wave is and how stunning our coastline is with all the layers of mountains.
I still remember this session as if it was yesterday, me and @petedevries paddled out at sunrise and the waves just kept getting bigger, windier and crazier. I saw so many insane waves ridden this day and got some of my best waves of my life out there as well.

It was fun to surf a few heats for mother’s days at the @ripcurl_canada@surfcanada nationals!
Congrats @sanoa_olin on the win and for a super fun final!
Felt the love on the beach yesterday for all the amazing moms❤️

My little girl: I hope you’re ready for all the adventures you’re going to have with us! I can’t wait to spend many more days with you on empty beaches enjoying all that life has to offer✨🌞
From growing up on Cox Bay to competing on it at the national level. 🏄♀️
Our local legends share their life-long love for Tofino and for Pacific Sands.
