Burkard describes the experience on his Vimeo page, as being far from the ideal surf trip. Only three hours of sunlight each day, brutal winter storms and freezing temperatures are of course not what surfers are usually looking for. (During the time the time Burkard and the team were shooting the video in December 2015 Iceland was hit by the worst winter storms of 2015, one of the worst winter storms in 25 years.)

But as the video below shows it makes for a truly amazing adventure!
