Hola a todos! Welcome to the Friday Surf Report coming your way mostly from Panga Drops. The surf was definitely a bit mellower today, but Pangas held true to its reputation as old faithful.

Although today’s report is from Panga Drops, I briefly glanced at Colorados first. This guy was the only dude to catch a decent wave during my 10 minutes there.

This guy in the white shirt won today’s surf report heat. His sequence of rotation during his turns were textbook!

BAAMM! Backside hack. Turn of the day right here. Max points for critical nature of the maneuver.

I think this guy is working on displaying maximum water, so that he can dowse his buddies when they are paddling back out next time 🙂

Today’s surfers were way more dialed in than yesterday. I saw very few sets go unridden.

Weight on the back foot? Famous last words at Pangas XD Back-footed turns are always dicey at Pangas as you wipe off so much speed on a very soft wave face.

Get out there for some sunset snaps fellas! It was funny, as I was leaving from shooting this evening I saw a mass migration of surfers from all directions making their way to Pangas’ beach access to get their sunset fill in. Not today Colorados, but probably next week… Well guys tomorrow looks like it should be a bit bigger than today, so we’ll see what the swell brings. Thanks for checking in and have a good Friday.

Hey everyone! Welcome to Friday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. The size of the surf dropped notably today. There were still head-high waves on the sets, but it was a wait between the stronger sets. Keith setting up for a left set-wave here.

Que onda mi gente?? Bri back with your Tuesday surf report. I’m gonna be upfront… today was a bit of one of those shockers… I mean it looked good from the beach, but between the lulls, inconsistency and straight up closeouts, after watching it for about 45 min to hour, I decided to go ahead..
