"Surfin Sweden" Freddie Meadows is looking at the waves hitting the beaches of Mölle, Skåne. It's 1pm when the surfing pro is at a secret spot, a place exclusive for him where he doesn't have to be close to other surfers. Yesterday was hard. This afternoon is calmer. Almost too calm, as the wind is a bit wrong. ”I love you wave, I'm sorry that I was drunk yesterday” he shouts over the ocean. And then the hunt for the Perfect Wave continues.
