YOW - Born by the NorthSea, a Sascha Borrey portrait

The second installment of YOW’s portrait series brings you a deeper look into the life of Belgian surfer and skater, Sascha Borrey. "Born by the North Sea" explores how a lack of ideal conditions can inspire creativity, and how, as long as we persist, we can find beauty and joy in the unexpected.

‘Have you ever heard the saying, jack of all trades, master of none?’ Well, Sascha Borrey is actually a master of all of them. Blame the unfavorable conditions or the inconsistency of weather patterns of the place he grew up in, but it’s places where things are hard to find that make you get more creative.

In this video — made by Belgian filmmaker Jade Madoe — Sascha talks about the reward of finding your own wave, the relationship with your craft and the artist building it, and appreciating the things in life often overlooked.

The second portrayal of YOW’s portrait series, where we will bring you unique stories from our riders around the globe, inspiring and encouraging the art of self-expression.
