Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Colorados. The waves were mellow today. I suspect today was the bottom of the swell for a few days. Still clean and playful though.

It was a good day to work on turns and rounded out carves from out on the face.

Oscar worked through a few combos. You know the surf is fat when the local boys are bogging rail (a little) haha.

His finishing turn and spray fan were worth more than his tubitos in my eye. I liked his style during this turn.

It wasn't a bad little day of waves, but nothing too special. Friday and Saturday both look good. A bit of a pulse and short interval, so the sets should be fairly consistent.
