This surfer getting on rail and working his way back into the pocket just in time. Getting far ahead of the pocket is risky business at Pangas.

Andy made a quick appearance and flashed some power for us viewers. I guess he's been honing his skills at Amarillo lately.

There were lulls between the sets, but John managed to rope through a few carves as the surf stuntman this morning.

This guy stroked into this left from way out the back. The first section held him up, but he was tested with a critical drop on the inside reform. He stuck it with nonchalant style.

There were a couple of fresh intermediates out there as well. This guy caught one of the larger set waves of the morning and aced the takeoff.

This right could very well have been the best ride of his life. He was clearly stoked and the other surfers were also stoked for him out the back. Surfing is better when everyone is catching good waves and having a good time.

John caught about three lefts back to back and ripped them to pieces.

The faces were still fairly soft at middle peak, so he had to careful not to push through his turns too hard.

This turn was a near perfect replica of the prior turn. John has his smooth frontside carve on lockdown.

The wind helped magnify even John's spray. The water temp is definitely starting to cool down! Make sure you bring a wetsuit top or springsuit.

Although the size was up slightly, I didn't see many barrels. The good news about this weekend is that the wind should be lighter. I'll see you guys tomorrow! Have a good weekend.

Howdy folks! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The wind was supposed to be ripping hard today, but it was actually very light this morning. The only downside was that the tide was low at that time.
