- I thought Australians were cool people, apparently the exception makes the rule. The Australians I know are really cool and enthousiastic we surf here in Belgium in (honestly) not the best conditions.So that idiot who laughs with Belgium and their sloppy waves get out of here and put another shrimp on the barby!

the truth about De Haan - hello,it is time we tell the truth about De Haan, I live here all my life and ride the waves for the past 6 years. And I must say that De Haan is the best spot in the world... a day or 5 a year. We can't choose the time, we have to take the moment. If you are there at the moment, you'll find pictures like the third and fourth.
