John tried fishing at first, but his line was all tangled up, so he had to abort mission.

French Fries was more consistent and had better shape than the middle peak.

It takes a big guy or a strong guy (or both) to turn a 9ft foamie like this.

Casual style. He's looking the right way though! You can't get too far out of the pocket at Pangas.

It was far from good, but we can't complain too much because the evil wind hasn't shown up yet. It's just a matter of time though. Unless Windguru ends up being wrong. Hopefully it's still fairly light tomorrow before the big jump in the wind on Friday. Hasta manana.

PANGA DROPS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were pretty much firing when I rocked up to take pictures, but just like yesterday the wind went side-shore as soon as I put the camera away. At least some surfers caught the magic window.

PANGA DROPS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. This lady either ended up a bit later than anticipated or misunderstood what it means to get barreled haha! I’ve got to give her credit for looking at this wave though. You don’t know if you don’t go (or at least look at going).
