It ran a little hot so Lance got to demonstrate his perfect dive. It's a 10!

Rowan didn't let his dad grab all the waves.

Rowan got some reps in pulling into fast tubes. That's how you get comfortable entering barrels. He's ready to leap here like his dad. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree haha. Projecting off your board is one of the safest ways to fall in the barrel though, so it is smart.

If the surf isn't great, sometimes you've just gotta pull into closeouts for the vision. Get some travel time in.

The middle peak had some lefts coming through. Good for a few goofy-footers.

Lucy found a gem of a wave. Looks she still needs some work on setting her inside rail on the drop. Barrel riding is hard and takes patience plus some beatings to get the hang of haha.

I was shocked Jeison didn't pull into this right, as it was arguably the wave of the morning.

He made up for the tube dodge by hucking a big air-reverse. I'd take the tube, but to each his own haha.

Here we see both the Platonic Good and the Platonic Evil. The Platonic Good is the guy in the barrel. The Platonic Evil (Villain) is the guy at the shoulder. Take off in the right spot (deep) or wait (not go), that's how wave allocation works.

Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. Well I’ll go ahead and admit my judgement of Surfline’s forecast was way off. I was expecting to see twice the size we observed over the past three days. Anyways, Wednesday’s surf report is from Colorados and we did have some fun waves,..
