Here's his take:<\/p>\n\n  <p class=\"standfirst\">The swell didn't stop from January till May for most of Europe, so it's going to be hard to cover everything that's happened in God's country \u2014 here are some highlights.<\/p>\n\n  <!-- PORTHCAWL -->\n  <p class=\"location-heading\">Porthcawl<\/p>\n\n  <p>Porthcawl has a great surfing community and most spots handle different conditions, so there's always somewhere to find.
