Guess what! Gliding Barnacles! August was almost gone,
but the best was yet to come: the Gliding Barnacles festival at Figueira da Foz
in the last days of the month. The prompt idea is the promotion of Figueira da
Foz as destination of the world surf through the interaction between artistic
culture and surf, with the city as background. A big program was design having has
the event headquarters the old car Garage of Auto-peninsular, transformed into
a multifunctional artistic display. From a shaping room to a rock star gig, we had
a bit of it all. The surf was up scaled with the presence of renamed longboarders:
James Parry came along all from California;
Michael Lay from England and Matteo Fabbri from Italy. Take it back to the roots
was the major statement of these days. Amazing surfers and fantastic classic boards
from BING surfboards had to prove their resistance and good trimming in the
perfect wave sets of Buarcos and Cabedelo beach. Tree days
of fun, fantastic atmosphere, high level surf (sub)culture, surrounded by friendship,
free spirits and rock and roll, in the celebration of what is gathering us, the
passion for surfing. From the Barnacle Boys…. just expect the unexpectable! Well
done boys.
