canarian guys - i lived one year in tenerife,now for month in fuerte...most of the people are against tourists,foreign people whatever...i guess its because most of them never went to other places...twenty years the same islands (like much islands) or island and thats it...although ive met also some nice guys here and there but most of the canarian people (not only surfers) are a bit strange cause if the tourismthing stops there will be left nothing than goats ...however they don·t know something like respect (without a few nice people...)...thats it
