You know how there are some sports you've never mastered but you really wish you could? Surfing is like that for me.
Instead I watch with envy as people like Anne-Flore Marxer switch between surfing and snow-boarding without any apparent effort. She sent out this great video and pics from a trip she made to surf a tidal bore, ie a wave that breaks overland under rare conditions. You really have to watch it, I'm so jealous.
She said: "The last full moon was red and beautiful, it was powerful and we were all moved by it.. and so were the waters of the planet.. creating a magnificent tidal bore for us to surf !
"Tidal bores happen on big coefficient when the level of the water is low.. it's an amazing phenomenon which creates a wave you can surf in land when the tide comes in.. i had heard of it and i went to surf it.. as it happens mainly once a year many people travel to surf it."

Looks like three women out there, not a bad ratio I guess for a crazy outing. If you like this video, lots more on her social media accounts, esp Anne Flore Marxer on Twitter.
