North of the Sun

Inge Wegge (25) and Jørn Ranum (22) spent nine months of cold, Norwegian winter in the isolated and uninhabited bay of a remote, arctic island by the coast of Northern-Norway, facing nothing but the vast Atlantic Ocean.

There they built a cabin out of driftwood and other cast-off materials that washed up on shore and ate expired food the stores would otherwise have thrown away.

But the boys brought with them two items of utmost importance: Their surfboards - perhaps their biggest motivation for the arctic adventure.

Because the remote bay holds a well-kept secret: some of the world's finest surfing waves.
