Lucy's rail to rail surfing continues to improve. Pretty close to textbook form during her bottom turn here.

Asher is consistently ripping. He was on a bigger board, but roped through some smooth turns.

A little cross-step carve haha! I guess this board is about as closest thing to a longboard that I've ever seen Asher ride.

It worked well with on the corners as the tide filled in. It let him carry speed through to the inside effortlessly.

No one was sitting at the deep north peak. It was slow there, but clean and playful when the sets came.

Asher with a well timed float. The wind and frothy lip added extra flare to the maneuver.

It was a good day for the lefts! I think the swell direction turned slightly more south as there weren't as many draining rights as yesterday.
