Well, maybe crossing the Alps by bike is not one of those remarkable deed all the world should know. I mean, thousands of people do a similar trip every year. Thousands. They grab their bike, plan their route, they can choose to go there alone or in groups, with some friends or colleagues. While you’re crossing the highest mountains of Europe, you probably will not bump into fierce bears and hostile wolves. In all probability, you will not meet a savage wilderness or lose yourself in an uncharted territory. But, in the end, what makes an experience really worth?

As fascination with this mystical island mounts, Iceland’s call can be heard amongst the tribe. They are seeking out a new wave, a wave that comes with different experiences, different expectations and different rules. What they seek isn’t easily found, but when they find it, it’s felt right to the core. These frozen rumbles are chilling the hairs on the back of surfers necks across the globe. Chris Burkard is one surfer that has felt the call and has become captivated by this arcane landscape, where the true spirit of isolation can be experienced where no man has surfed before.
