Competition for the youth went down last Saturday at “El Roquete” in epic conditions under the Tenerife sunshine!

The North Tenerife spot delivered rippable walls and sunshine for the first Volcom Surf Happening physical competition after two seasons of digital only battles. Despite the 20sec huge swell clearing out all the area, the left pointbreak provided a somehow sheltered arena for the event to run. Yes, there was a bunch of cleaning sets and a lot of paddling but some of the best up and coming European surfers handled it like champs and put on a great show…
