Howdy everyone! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report primarily from a mysto-spot that I don’t want to personally name haha. John leveraging all his speed on this power carve.

Alright, now to “spot-X”! I expected the waves to be pretty bad when I went to shoot, but was shocked to see there were some nuggets coming in here.

Yuji got a good little barrel here, but I’m a bit perplexed by his form here? From my observation it looks like he was going for a switch pig-dog? Maybe he’s been watching some Chris Ward or Andy Irons clips, the two best back-side barrel riders of all time.

I think John was feeling a bit “over-gunned” with the Ricky Carroll out there, but that didn’t stop him from getting vertical on this end-section.

Yuji must’ve skipped breakfast this morning, as he must’ve been pretty light to have popped this high on this air XD

Kai DeLorenzo was the heat winner today. Check out how low he’s getting here without compromising his style. He made this tube too.

I didn’t think I’d see makable barrels for a considerable period of time, but here’s the barrel of the day from spot-X. Kai fully coiled up in this frame ready to extend and drive through the tube.

There weren’t many people on the beach near Spot-X, but those few who were quickly waxed up and jumped out there after seeing the mini-tube fest. Tomorrow the surf could be alright with some tide in the morning or sunset, but be forewarned that the forecast looks pretty small and wind looks like it will be blasting hard offshore. I’ll still be bringing you guys some action, so see you tomorrow.
