Nike roundhouse Hossegor
The Nike 6.0 Roundhouse, Hossegor, France opened it’s doors on the 08th of July and has already made it’s mark as the Hot Ticket.
The 2 story ultimate surf house acts as part art gallery, meeting point, brand space, party venue and a ton more besides. With visitors constantly through the door the first week kicked of what promises to be an amazing summer.
The story so far.
This first week has been crammed full of action and entertainment including the Cash For Tricks surf contest, live performances and tattooing sessions.
For its first leg the Nike 6.0 Cash for tricks set up at the Bourdaines surf spot in Seignosse. With a new judging criteria, Cash for Tricks is exactly what it claims to be, allowing some of worlds best surfers to fully express themselves getting marked on creativity, style and progressive surfing. Joan Duru was on fire and killed the spot leaving as both the winner and little richer!
At the same time in the Roundhouse, Parisian illustrators and tattoo artists from the Bleu Noir studio updated their own dedicated room with wall sketches, drawings and ceiling height tags. Bleu Noir brought their touch and style not just to the plasterwork but to the right arm of Nike 6.0 rider Charly Martin who treated himself to some new ink.

Surf Mentor Bruno Debauche came and joined us to give a private tour of the house in true cribs like fashion and leads us into next week where we have living legend Rob Machado swinging by for a showcase and a private screening of his new film The Drifter, music comes in courtesy of Parisian beat makers Justice and we expect a few other international surfs to swing by and say hi.

A horse in the garage
It’s understood since such a space was created…the garage. The origin of this word is unknown ( for me, at least ): greek, latin, celtic? Science has not been able to prove yet why the more people fill it with stuff, the more there’s space left to fill with other stuff.
