You remember Mundaka? Arguably Europe's finest left-hand point break that sits nestled on the coast of the Spanish Basque Country?
Yes, she seemed oh-so relevant in the late 1990s and early 2000s when she was an annual stop on the then ASP World Championship Tour. But then a dredging project messed with the sand - left the crown jewel of the Basque Coast looking like a shell of her former self. It was a tragic fall from grace.
Here are Aritz Aranburu, Natxo Gonzalez, Kepa Acero, and friends relishing a run of swell from 2018 and demonstrating that yes, Mundaka very much still pumps. It's so pretty it hurts.
