As the beast from the east opened up the Atlantic for a big north swell, Frenchman Sanchis ditched the snow dusted pines of his homeland and headed for Senegal.

He landed, headed straight out for a few hours of perfectly groomed overhead Atlantic rollers, before cramming his things back into his coffin back and flying off to wherever he’s headed next. Because when you’re a jet-setting charger there just ain’t time for dilly dallying.
