Barbados Surfing Winter 2019-2020

Barbados Surfing Winter 2019-2020

January 31, 2020
Barbados Surfing Winter 2019-2020 The winter 2019-2020 surfing season in Barbados has been a banger so far. November saw the beginning of the winter trade swells begin and Freight’s Bay saw some steady early swells with some of the nicest waves for learning, progressing and just all out ripping… on a longboard. That’s my speed, though, keep that classic longboard style. Keep it single fin and find the glide. Deep driving turns and plenty of tip time. Freight’s Bay has to be one of the nicest waves on the island and it’s surely one of the most consistent during the winter months. It doesn’t...

Hurricane Beryl Barbados

Hurricane Beryl Barbados

July 09, 2018
Hurricane Beryl Barbados The first Hurricane for the 2018 Atlantic season blew past Barbados yesterday. Nothing major to report. Beryl passed the island as a storm and passed us a long way North of us. There was some rain and a little breeze but nothing like we had to batten down the hatches for. A little bit of much needed rain fell so I will be looking forward to the island being nice a green and a little less greasy. There were waves. Now, I didn't get to surf them yesterday but from what I saw it was a late late pulse over on the east coast with Soup Bowl delivering some lovely near head-...

Ride the Tide Barbados Sea Turtle EMERGENCY

Barbados Sea Turtle EMERGENCY

July 05, 2018
Barbados Sea Turtle EMERGENCY Last Sunday morning my Boss, also known as my girlfreind, shoved her iPad infornt of me and gave me a storng look that I better watch thats on the iPad and I better open both my eyes and listen. I might be an early riser but I had planned on lounging around this Sunday morning and so without any coffee in me I was ready to ignore the iPad, look at it for a moment or two and agree with whatever was so important. Important enough to be rammed through my morning quiet time. I knew I was on thin ice if I didn't give the damn device my attention. Below is what had my...

Ride the Tide Barbados Toledo Wins J-Bay Again

Toledo Wins J-Bay Again

July 05, 2018
Toledo Wins J-Bay Again Now that was pretty good watching, as an online spectator! Sorry dudes, I am not quite affluent enough to make the trip and enjoy the action unfolding live from a confy chair on the beach at J-Bay. Read the WSL full story here . So, my take on the whole event at J-Bay, South Africa is... firstly, the right man won. Now, I can hear the growning from all of you having followed the comments on the live stream. Yes, there might have been some over scoring. But the judges picked the right winner so the scores do not really matter. And, yes, I am a bit of a Toledo fan...

Ride the Tide Barbados | Surf School Crew Surf Lessons

Barbados | Surf School Crew Surf Lessons

August 17, 2017
Today our surfing lessons went to Freight’s Bay. It’s our favorite place to do surfing lessons because it really allows our surfers the best possible shot at being a super awesome surfer. It’s shallow enough to walk around the break and line-up and easy enough under foot. There isn’t a whole heap of current to worry about and although the beach can be very narrow and in some parts rocky there are so may safe ways and places to get in and out of the water so that newbie surfers can focus on what they’re supposed to be focused on, surfing and only surfing. It was the 3rd a final surfing session...
