PANGA DROPS

Hola amigos! Welcome to Wednesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The tide was a bit lower by the time I got around to shooting today, so there was more action at mid-peak than the side-peaks. The wind was stronger today, but it was a little bigger today too.

Asher and Finn dominated the lineup this afternoon. Here's Asher putting his speed to work with a critical tag for a big fish.

Rob caught a few cruisey lefts up to the north of Finn and Asher. Smooth style Rob!

Finn flexing on us with some serious style during this bottom turn. It also helps that the wave behind him looks so ideal!

I had to include this shot of Finn 'cause he's looking so dialed in and there's a mini-tube unwinding too.

I never really enjoyed the Hayden shape boards I rode, but Finn seems dialed on his.

The highly coveted critical section at mid-peak. Usually the first sections there are fat, but this one stood up for Finn.

Asher's right combo ride gets to close today's action. He set himself up perfectly for this backside roundhouse.

Backside roundhouses are one of my favorite moves because you can generate some serious drive back up toward the whitewater.

And a final bank off the end-section to seal the deal. I'd say this probably around a 7 pointer for today's conditions. Not that I would've scored higher than a 5 on any of my waves out there haha.

That's all from this Wednesday's surf action. Tomorrow should be about the same size, but windier. Hopefully the water temp doesn't drop! See you all tomorrow.

Hey everyone! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops, once again we’re talking French Fries. The waves were smaller today, but the shape was arguably slightly better than yesterday. The wind was also a touch lighter.

Hey amigos! Josh back behind the lens for next set of days. Monday’s surf report is coming your way from Panga Drops, specifically “French Fries”. The swell was close to non-existent, but Pangas did its magic and magnified the lackluster size into something playful and shreddable.
