Timo Mullen tackles the Nordic Swell

Broke the Ice for the New Year with an amazing SUP at a pretty hollow break in Sligo, the swell was forecast to be pretty clean at 10ft@15secs, the extra period really makes this spot barrel. It looked pretty small when I rocked up so I went out on my Starboard 9'0 SUP, I'm glad I did as the wave was pretty fast and even the real good local surfers were struggling to make any of the sections. It was the perfect size for this spot as any bigger it turns into an Irish Chopes!! Air temp was only about 2 degrees Celsius enough to freeze over the rock pools on the walk down to the break!

Looks like amazing swell all week here if you can handle the low temperature!!
