What started out as a bunch of befriended Nixon team riders sharing some waves together, deve-loped into an annual and much anticipated event. Other than traditional high-stress competitions, the Nixon Surf Challenge is all about having fun, a relaxed atmosphere and an emphasis on free-surfing and style. A group of hand-picked surfers gets the change to participate in this invite-only event, drawing talents from all around the world. In the end the team decides together who the winner is following a non-traditional scoring system. This is what makes the Nixon Surf Challenge so uni-que and the ideal environment to showcase some
skills and creativity in surfing.
Lo que comenzó como una reunión de amigos del equipo Nixon en la cual se comparten algunas olas juntos, se ha convertido en un evento anual mucho mas trascendental. A parte de los tradicio-nales campeonatos de alto estrés, el Surf Cha-llenge Nixon tiene que ver con la diversión, con un ambiente relajado y un énfasis en la surf libre y el estilo. Un grupo de surfistas escogidos a mano tienen la oportunidad de participar en este evento exclusivo por invitación, aprovechando los talen-tos de cada uno. Al final, el equipo decide quién es el ganador en conjunto, se sigue un sistema de puntuación no tradicional. Esto es lo que hace que el desafío de Nixon sea tan único y el ambiente ideal para mostrar algunas habilidades y la creati-
vidad en el surf.

The historical Basque city of San Sebastian has been the home of nine of the past ten Nixon Surf Challenges. For its ten-year anniversary, the event was brought to a place where no-one would ever guess a surf competition could be held at: the artic waters of the Lofoten Islands, Norway. This year, we strove to pursue 2011’s initiative: create the un-seen, derive from the standards and find the un-common place. From the iceberg of the polar circle to the arid land of La Graciosa: welcome to the 2012 Nixon Surf Challenge.
La histórica ciudad vasca de San Sebastián ha sido el hogar de nueve de los últimos diez desafíos del Nixon. En su décimo aniversario, el evento fue lle-vado a un lugar, donde nunca nadie podría adivinar, a las aguas árticas de las Islas Lofoten, Noruega. Este año, se esforzó por seguir la iniciativa de 2011. Crear lo nunca visto y buscar un lugar fuera de lo común. Desde los icebergs del círculo polar a la tierra árida de La Graciosa. Bienvenidos al Surf Challenge 2012 Nixon.

We came to a creek full of beautiful color con-trasts, surfed a lefthand wave for the rest of the
trip.

Home to only 700 inhabitants and small enough to explore on foot, La Graciosa has developed a mythical reputation among surfers: 27 km2, no paved roads, a lunar landscape and yes, some pretty extreme locals who have been going about their business quietly for years, gorging themselves on world-class reef breaks on a day-to-day basis. So if you’re eyeing up on charging the little-known slabs of La Graciosa, take a good humble attitude, show plenty of respect and trust us, you’ll get the rides of a lifetime.
El hogar de sólo 700 habitantes y lo suficientemente pequeño para explorar a pie, La Graciosa ha desarrollado una reputación mítica entre los surfis-tas: 27 km2, no hay caminos pavimentados, un paisaje lunar y sí, algunos lugareños bastante extremos que han estado ocupados con sus negocios en silencio durante años , hartandose en reef breaks de clase mundial día a día. Así que si estas pensando en cogerte algunos imponentes tubazos en La Graciosa,debes llegar con una actitud humilde, mostrar mucho res-peto y buscar la confianza de los locales, entonces, da por seguro que tendrás algunos de mejores momentosd e surf de tu vida.

The contrast of the volcanoes in the back-ground, the sound of waves and wind, the cry of the passenger gull and heaviness of time, as thick as oil, make this island a unique and extraordinary.

Tradicionalmente La Graciosa vivía de la pesca y del ganado, de hecho, hay una ola que lleva el nombre de “El corral”, pues allí se amontonaban las cabras y ovejas.
