Hey everyone! Welcome to Friday morning’s surf report from Panga Drops main peak and some frames from French Fries. The waves were bigger today, but the direction was funky such that the lines of the waves weren’t as good as yesterday.

Our mystery shredder from Wednesday’s report was out again today and he definitely dominated the lineup. A nice high-speed end-section smack on this right-hander at the main peak.

WHAM! He fully unwound and got inverted on this end-section. There must first be compression before there can be extension and release.

The young Nica fella did a good job of kicking through this backside turn.

Ooohh! A stylish layback carve to close the curtain on today’s surf report. I got my wish that there were more surfers out today, but I was hoping the waves would be lining up better at French Fries. If you know what you’re looking at, then you probably noticed the majority of today’s frames were from the main-peak. Tomorrow’s forecast looks identical, so we’ll see what tomorrow brings.
