This month we are partner of an extraordinary competition: Le Royal Barrique
What is the Royal Barrique?
It's a Surfing competition which stands out completely from other competitions and which only concerns Tubes! 🏄♀️
At what period?
Between October 1st and 31st, the Royal Barrique jury checks the conditions to choose THE most beautiful day of Surfing, what we call the "Waiting Period"!
So the date and location are chosen according to the surf conditions.
The 50 selected surfers, partners and the public will be alerted by email a few days before a potential day and if it is good, 30 minutes before the competition there will be a text message sent with the confirmation so leave your cell phones on if you participate because the competition only lasts 3 hours! 🙃
What are the rules?
The rules are simple: All surfers are in the water at the same time. The priority rules in force are the same as in “free surfing”: the surfer furthest inside the wave has priority and we reward both the most beautiful tube surfer and the most beautiful Wipe Out.
Before the awards ceremony, the name of the winner is unknown. We then present the 5 most beautiful hits and then the jury reveals the name of the winner who can hold up the Royal Barrique trophy. 🏆
Besides, a Wipe Out, do you know what it is? Apart from being our flagship product based on arnica and with cryo effect, essential after sports sessions! (which you can buy here ), the Wipe Out is above all a Surf fall!
And a little extra: for those who can't go, don't panic! The competition is completely filmed!
