Callie Cruickshank: A Surfing Lassie

Watch this beautiful film about Scotland’s up and coming star surfer.

Film by Sam Howard

Meet Scotland’s rising star Callie Cruickshank, who’s been ripping up her home breaks since she was seven years old. Hailing from the north east of Scotland in a small town called Fraserburgh with a tight knit crew of groms.

Growing up surfing the cold northern waters in a 6mm wetsuit is no easy feat. "The hardest thing about surfing in Scotland is that when it snows you lose all your excitement but when you get in the water you warm up and you just get stoked,” explains Callie.

Now sponsored by Saltrock, Callie is a dedicated competitive surfer and at just 13 years old has has racked up an impressive list of achievements.
She’s currently Scotland’s Under 14 champion and a junior squad member as well as part of the SSF Team Scottish Surfing Federation.

Travelling all over the world to compete she takes it all in her stride, “I don’t get too nervous in competitions because I don’t put any pressure on myself. My dad always says the best surfer is the one having the most fun so it’s a good mindset to have when competing. Of course, it feels amazing to win heat and events, but it’s not the most important part for me. If I’m performing at my best, I’m happy whatever the result.”

The future’s looking bright for Callie and this beautiful film is a great testament to her dedication and talent.

DÉPLACER LE SILENCE with Lola Mignot

I traveled to Biaritz for the the Queens Surf Festival in June, but the good weather and waves enticed me to stay until the last months of summer.

I met Oscar Valencia and really liked his film work. This project came along very organically. Oscar wanted to capture the timeless summer in Biarritz, and that’s what we did. We shared good food, good wine, good waves, and good naps with the best crew in the shining warm European sun.

The ocean always has its way of being unpredictable; the tides change drastically the surf had to be well-timed and the the waves were not always in our favor, but Oscar was up for all of it. My good friend Margaux Arramon Tucco showed us around her home town, she always knew were the waves where and brought us the best local spots. Margaux and my cousin Chacha who were always around for the adventure make a guest appearance in the film.

Making this little movie was a lot of fun, in and out of the water.

The Porthmeor Longboard Classic 2022

The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines the word ‘surfable’ as, quite simply, ‘being suitable for surfing’. Here at the BLU, our much more empirical definition is to chuck the frothy groms in to see if they can catch waves, before deciding whether to bin the whole thing and go to the pub. Thanks to the youthful dedication of the U16 Cadets, and in spite of all the laws of physics, man and the heavens and a blind refusal to accept defeat, we had us a Porthmeor Longboard Classic 2022!
