Howdy boys and girls! Bri here doing a little fill in for todays Friday surf report. Been out of town on my last few days off, but been seeing all the amazing swell we’ve finally gotten, that we’ve ALL been so patiently waiting for! Didn’t get the call until later in the day, so unfortunately I didn’t quite make it down for the morning “Glory” waves that everyone was talking about, but I did happen to catch some fun (and still some pretty good sized waves) in the later afternoon. Check it!

It was running a bit fast and blowing side shore, whereas I am sure it was straight offshore earlier today. It’s been doing that quite a bit lately (blowing side shore in the afternoons) But there was plenty of size still out there to get into some Uber sized car barrels! Peep this dudes nice little In’ N’ Out barrel sequence. . .

By the looks of it, I wasn’t too sure (especially from this angle) whether he was gonna make it out of this thing or not?

I can imagine, everyone who had their cameras out there, are still going through their clips and shots from today.

Hey everyone! Welcome to Friday’s surf report from Colorados. It was another small, but fun day of waves. Looks like the last mellow day for a good eight to nine days. Finley managed to find a couple of tubitos.

Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. The surf was still fairly small today. There were moments where it pulsed and moments where it lulled out. Still clean and good for turns.
