This one kilometer long stretch of white sand faces West directly and receives plenty of swell even on the smallest of summer days.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;">The layout of the seafloor and sand movements in the area produce multiple peaks that can distill long rippable walls and barrels in the right conditions. Simply put, Doniños is the perfect place to hold a comp. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><strong>European Junior Title Race Heats Up</strong> </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;">After an epic start to the season in Northwest France a few weeks back, <a href="https://www.boardriding.com/riders/adur-amatriain" target="_blank">Adur Amatriain</a> (EUK) and <a href="https://www.boardriding.com/riders/lucia-machado" target="_blank">Lucia Machado</a> (CNY) lead the way and have a target on their backs as Stop No. 2 unfolds.
