PANGA DROPS

Howdy everyone! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The waves surprised to the upside today. It was slightly larger than I was expecting, and there were hour plus long windows where the wind dropped out.

Opher tapping into his rail to rail flow today. I think 2025 is going to be the year where I see Opher making some good tubes at Colorados when it comes back to life closer to May.

Asher charging up hard for a big foam-section slam. He was a bit bummed that he brought his beefy fish, as the waves had sufficient power for his smaller board.

Lesther staying sharp out there. I think he's like me and using this time to train and prepare for when Colorados re-awakens. We strongly prefer Colorados to Pangas haha.

Asher gets to close the report with an interesting left - right whitewater blast combo. He banked off the left-section first.

There were plenty of waves to go around this morning! The next few days look really fun (small, but with light wind). Time to shred Pangas! Hasta manana.
