Back in late November, a herd of surf & adventure-hungry travellers headed down to Costa Rica to join the BT circus. It consisted of a surf camp group of 18, a private 6-person surf camp for 8-mile snowboard crew, 5 BT staffers, as well as many of our local friends & surf coaches who joined the fun along the way. Great pics from the trip just keep emerging, so we thought we'd share a few more. Here ya go:

BT co-founder Graeme, demonstrating his version of a golden shower.

Leaving our first destination to head South. Notice the clean car.

4 hours later. Abused.

One car had a tail when we arrived. Weird.

The BT staff. I really love those beer bottles.

BT surf coaches Will & Robbie, about to get their horse fetish on.

BT's beach-side accommodations. No big deal.

Post-surf hydration station.

How's my hair?

8-mile filmer Aaron "Trout" Maksymec, on how to make friends with the locals.

This should be an ad for something.

Pro snowboarder Johnny Lyall owning the waves.

How do you celebrate catching the best wave of your trip? Drink Guaro until you forget it.

BT surf coach Will Kane, talking about the best way to pee yourself while surfing.

The dude in the water is local surf coach Juan Surfo, enjoying the view.

BT surf coach Robbie (white shirt) walks like a zombie but surfs really well.

The 2 on the right are BT founders Graeme & TJ, enjoying some manly cocktails.

The hotel view. Johnny: "Those waves look fun. You wanna go surf now?". Graeme: "One more piña colada"

Trits ice cream sandwiches, which the boys aptly named "Costa Rican crack".

On the last day, Robbie busts out the one-legged dance moves.

Bromance.

That's me looking for a safe place to pee from the boat.

That's me in the yellow shirt above. Will Kane. Costa Rica surf coach & travel guide for BT. Our last surf camp ended a month ago, and lately I've been going through photos from the trip and reminiscing. The trip, and everyone on it - was amazing. It's hard to describe it with words, so below is a photo essay that tells the story pretty well. Enjoy.

That's Robbie in the middle. A fantastic Aussie dude and the newest addition to our team of Costa Rica surf camp coaches. In this photo he's thinking about how much he loves his new job.

We caught enough fish to feed a group of 18 for 3 days.

Friends & waves. What more do you need?

The crew. Everyone was surfing like a champ after a few days.

This beer is from Nicaragua. It's like drinking American beer in Canada. Who cares, it's delicious.

Game of quarters before dinner? Sure.

Yup. That's the entire group riding home from the bar on a cattle truck.

Zip-lining. We did that too.

Sunset cocktails in an infinity pool overlooking the coast? Sounds boring.

I love my job.

That's me. Still loving my job.

80 foot catamaran cruise for the final day with some prizes for the group thanks to Spy Optic.

Girl in a cooler.

The only way to end the trip. Thanks to everyone who came down - u guys rock!

Congratulations to 8-mile crew, a wild pack of riders from Vancouver, and winners of the first ever Snowboard Canada Crew Challenge - a video challenge in which snowboard crews posted videos and battled for most online votes - with the grand prize being a private Beach Travellers Costa Rica surf camp for the entire crew. No big deal.

Here's the video that won them the trip:

Flights are booked and the trip starts in 3 weeks, so hit the tanning beds and do your stretches dudes, cause it's gonna be a surf-and-mayhem-soaked 13 days in Costa Rica. Just a warning: cruising around Central America for 2 weeks may make you forget that snow exists.
