Hey amigos! Welcome to Friday’s sunset surf report from Colorados. The waves were smaller and less consistent than expected, but the wave faces were still clean.

The tide was high, so it was a good time to work on smooth, swooping carves.

Bang! He rifled through another snap on the inside corner. It looked like he was surfing in a heat out there haha. Going for max points.

It was definitely softer and smaller than I expected, but the surfers handled it fine. Rail to rail surfing was the only thing in the cards this evening.

Most people weren't in "laceration" mode out there. Slow and steady was the common pace amongst this evening's crew.

Well, a few surfers tried to get radical. This guy found a right that actually gave him some slope to work with.

We started to lose light, but Aiden got his best waves right at sunset. Golden tint and big rooster tail.

Aiden closed today's action with a bang. It's always nice to end your session on a high. The surf was a bit underwhelming today, but hopefully the new swell starts to show tomorrow. Hasta manana.

Wow! A surprise gift for us surfers here in Iguana this Thursday. I was expecting the surf to be small, but this morning it looked really fun.

Howdy everyone! Monday surf report coming your way from Colorados. Unfortunately my excessive praise of the conditions appears to have backfired. Onshore has returned 🙁
