On Location: Austria

Our favourite section of the Surf Anywhere European Wave Project tour, Austria!! As we round the home stretch of our trip we were fortunate enough to hang with the Austrian surf family. The Alm wave brings this community together but it’s exploring new waves in the Alps that fuels their stoke!! Just a quick list of the wonderful people who were our host on the wave hunting mission:

Max Neuböck – NU.ART
Gerwin Andreas – Delight Alliance
Kathrin Gappmayr – European Champion
Luki Haigermoser, Lena Lenfred, Christina Mini, Thomas Feb.

Mountain get away after surfing the Alm Canal

It was an extra special treat to stay in the Mountain Cabin with this crew. The Austrians are similar to the Alberta crew. We aren’t known for our waves but for the strength of our communities. I hope this spirit stays alive in the Austrian Surf Family for generations to come!!

ps. We are not giving out the locations of the 4 other wave locations we surfed so please no inquiries but if you need info on surfing the Alm wave please reach out to Nu.Art or Delight Alliance :)
