Winter surfing flips everything you think about surfing on its head. It’s like meditating in extreme conditions. It’s not about feeling cozy; it’s about facing nature head-on, with no filters. You push past physical comfort to tap into something deeper — mindfulness, discipline, and mastering your body and mind. It’s not just about riding waves; it’s about conquering yourself.

My name is Nikita Kliukvin, I am 25 years old, I was born and raised in Moscow. The camera fell into my hands at the age of 15 and I haven't released it since then. Photography began to open up new opportunities for me: friends in different countries of the world, travel and adventure. At the same time, I gained experience and constantly learned something new.
