"Each wave has its purpose, determined by its origin and its trajectory, along with the consequences of taking that path through thousands of kilometers. Ä°n the end, the wave takes expression in a spectacular explosion of energy. This is the moment each surfer longed for. The chance to live emotions which will be remembered for a lifetime. As we realize the splendorous power generated by the ocean, we are taken by a creative force, however conscious of our minuscule dimension in this planet. If, from the beginning of times, this imense blue body brings us curiosity of knowing what awaits us on the other side, it is the same body that calls us for a process of discovery, searching for our true selves and knowing what we can do for others as well."
