The hottest (coldest) event of the year!
Newquay, England is 279 miles from London, near Cornwall, and the heart of the island’s super hot scene. “Once a sleepy pilchard-fishing village…” Britain’s Guardian newspaper writes “…Newquay has reinvented itself as Britain’s premier surf destination. The British Bondi is Newquay’s Fistral beach – where surfers speak reverently of its huge hollow waves and impressive swell.”
And right now the British Bondi is having its annual “Boardmasters” six-star WQS event which is more “festival” less “QS.” It is pouring rain and the people are miserable. Just like they like it! The surf is weird slop, everybody is soaking wet, keeping their skin as pale as possible for the upcoming year/decade, and the food is fried and the water is freezing cold. Paul Evans, editor-in-chief of Surf Europe said, “Why are you calling it Corn Wall? What is Corn Wall?” when reached for comment.
What do you think people in England think Bondi is like? Do they imagine it as a grey town filled with tracksuit-wearing Caesar cuts? Would you rather go to the British Bondi or the Australian one?
