Definition: Point Break

Definition: A point break is a type of spot de surf où les vagues se brisentdepuis un point spécifique, souvent autour d’un cap ou d’une pointe rocheuse. Ces vagues offrent souvent une ride longue et régulière.

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

Ces vagues demandent un bon positionnement car si vous êtes trop à l’intérieur, vous serez projeté et si vous êtes trop à l’extérieur, sur l’épaule, vous ne partirez pas. C’est donc une vague technique à surfer mais qui offre un ride sans fin !

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!
