Definition: Point Break

Definition: A point break is a type of spot where waves break from a specific point, often around a cape or rocky point. These waves often offer a long, steady ride.

These waves can also follow the coast, making them relatively long.

These waves require good positioning, because if you're too far in, you'll be thrown, and if you're too far out, on the shoulder, you won't get going. So it's a technical wave to surf, but one that offers an endless ride!

Born in the hustle and bustle of Paris, Samuel Rosemain first explored the city on his skateboard. His life changed at the age of 13, when he moved to Martinique.

Between the waves of La Caravelle in Tartane and the hidden spots of Sainte-Marie, he discovered his new passion: surfing.

After five years at sea, Samuel turned to marketing while staying close to the ocean. He created Surf Tribe, a website merging his career and his passion for surfing, offering a platform for knowledge and sharing about the sport and its culture.

Because surfing is above all a tribe!
