This is \u0091110 East\u0092, the periodical yet erratic newsletter of the sophisticated, rugged and facetious surfers in China and South East Asia. <\/p>\n
CONTENTS :
\nHainan, China
\nHot Spot : Xuejiadao, Shandong, China (01 map)<\/p>\n
HAINAN, China :
\n* By June 2006, the private company \u0091Hainan Surfing World\u0092 will begin
\noperating for surfers willing to visit, surf and have fun on this island.
\nInquiries can be sent in english at : HainanSurfingWorld@hotmail.com , ask for Bryan.<\/p>\n
HOT SPOT : Xuejiadao, Shandong, China
\nIn the Yellow Sea, waves are not uncommon during typhoons season, from May to October. Each typhoon crossing the line of Ryukyu islands (draw a line between Japan and Taiwan) is keen to send swell in the dead-end of Yellow Sea, towards Shandong province and its capital city Qingdao.HAINAN, China :
\n ** On the other hand, we keep on receiving e-mails from travellers who need
\nfirst-hand information to surf Hainan. \u0085 people, you should first have a
\nlook at our Links page and then read below : our mailing list is for you !
\nA few newsletters ago, we mentioned the fact that this 35.000 square
\nkilometers island was about to become THE destination of choice for surfers
\nin China. Today we confirm this trend, once more.
\nIndeed, we have to face reality : at the moment there is still no
\nestablished surf shop or shaper or camping site, and english-speaking
\nfellows are too rare.
\nWorse, we have came across some expatriates who have expressed their
\nunwillingness to see visitors coming in. Damn, what will happen when the
\nChinese themselves will start surfing ?! They are 1.5 billion, 7 millions on
\nHainan itself ! C\u0092mon guys, you should launch surf schools for the local
\nkids instead, and teach basic knowledge such as the surf etiquette.
\nOn the other hand, visitors also need to understand their own influence in
\nand out of the water. Altogether, we are giving birth to a new form of
\nleisure and, dare we use the word : a new culture. If we could behave like
\nrole models, it would help a lot…<\/p>\n
HOT SPOT : Xuejiadao, Shandong, China<\/p>\n
In the Yellow Sea, waves are not uncommon during typhoons season, from May
\nto October. Each typhoon crossing the line of Ryukyu islands (draw a line
\nbetween Japan and Taiwan) is keen to send swell in the dead-end of Yellow
\nSea, towards Shandong province and its capital city Qingdao.<\/p>\n
>From this city of Qingdao, you will go West on the highway and get along the
\nJiaozhou bay in direction of Xuejiadao village, which lies at the entry of
\nthe peninsula of the same name.
\nThis area is a tourism and holidays haven within the Qingdao Development
\nArea, a green peninsula and an uncrowded surf spot just 550 kilometers South
\nof Beijing.
\nThe \u0091Golden sand beach\u0092 is a promise in itself and we won’t say more… we
\nare at the limit of our own code of conduct by making public a good spot
\nright in mainland China. Huh, by the way, there is more to be surfed all
\naround, of course.<\/p>\n
Newer news in our next newsletter.
\nSincerely yours,
\nThe Crew.<\/p>\n
