He had a wide variety of maneuvers in his arsenal as well.

The tide was high in the evening, so the big faces were open for carves.

Cande Resano was the real MVP this evening. She made the challenging conditions look easy.

Bang! Her backside turns are really wired in. I guess all those years surfing Popoyo's left.

It looked like she was surfing in a heat out there. But it was a solo clinic haha.

I got a little inspired watching her belt the lip so many times, but I was totally gassed after paddling in circles all morning at low-tide haha.

I was looking for waves like this in the morning, but didn't have much luck.

Cande was smart to drop all the way to the bottom of the face before initiating her bottom turns. It was kind of fat with the high-tide, so it was good to use the whole wave-face and surf top-to-bottom.

I was really impressed with how much power and drive she was generating. I definitely need to step up my rail to rail surfing haha.

She has the aesthetic of her spray rings dialed. They usually followed the perfect semi-circle, like throwing a cast net.

She had the whole lineup combo'd! I only went for tubes today, so it was a different approach. I tend to be a one trick pony and stick to that haha.

Hello and Happy Easter Sunday, we still have plenty swell running. The surf was pretty stretched out but there was an occasional good corner. @tonyzphotos reporting.

Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. Welcome to Wednesday’s report from Panga Drops. The waves pulsed fairly consistently early this morning, but died out later in the morning as the wind turned light onshore. Would you and a buddy split the peak on this A-Frame?
