Arctic Surf by Yassine Ouhilal


I never thought it was possible to surf in the Arctic Circle, but turns out I was wrong. Arctic Surf by Yassine Ouhilal follows five surfers trying to find waves no one has ever ridden before. Yassine Ouhilal specializes in pioneering and documenting new and unchartered surf destinations. For the past 10 years he has photographed dozens of locations around the globe, including several in Arctic regions.

Yassine's unique style superimposes unlikely scenarios with otherworldly settings. From swimming in the Arctic Ocean to capture a surfer in action with a snowcapped background to driving 4000 miles across the Sahara desert in search of unspoiled waves, he will stop at nothing to create images that set themselves apart. The reason? He loves what he does.


All I can say about this video is that it's chillingly beautiful.
