About Surfski Surfing


Kaspars Cekotins: “The main spots are Liepaja (Ziemelu Mols), a small village named Pavilosta just half an hour away, and a few around there that I would like to keep to myself. In terms of waves, the best spot is Menlrage, just across the border with Lithuania.The rules are simple: you need a cross-onshore wind to blow hard enough and long enough to build up a proper wave and then, depending on the direction of the wind, you just look which spot would work better – keeping in mind that at all spots feature a pier-like dam that protects the entry to the harbour for the incoming ships. In our case, it also shelters the incoming waves from the wind and cleans them up a bit so that you can understand where it actually is….” (Ed. remember, the best surfing waves for surfskis are not generally the best waves for board surfers)
