PLAYA SANTANA

Happy Monday everyone! After having a weird Sunday with light onshore yesterday, today definitely counts as a “happy” Monday because the offshore is back as usual.

The surf was small but clean here at Santana beach. Many little ones consistently breaking all over the beach.

Many of the young locals were out, practicing and polishing their maneuvers like this nice bottom turn.

Mikaela was happy to get in the water today… the wind is super calm which means that the heat is strong and suffocating, nothing better than have a mid-morning session.

You can ask Christopher about his session, he was ripping (as always) the lefts, throwing buckets on every turn.

There was a bodysurfer having a great time with the in-between sets waves.

And also a kneeboarder too… I guess the waves were the perfect size and shape to try many waves of surfing.

Here is Chris with a vertical attack to the lip, almost the whole board going above the wave… this photo could work as a Screensaver, don’t you think?

That’s it for today folks. The day is hot and I’m going to find some shade and a pool to hang out the rest of the day. Come back tomorrow with Bryan’s surf report from Colorado and Panga Drops.

Hey everyone! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The swell was notably stronger than I expected. Some early season Pacific power! Middle peak was the place to be, but it was windy.

Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were pretty much firing when I rocked up to take pictures, but just like yesterday the wind went side-shore as soon as I put the camera away. At least some surfers caught the magic window.

PANGA DROPS

Hey amigos! Welcome to March 1st’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were really fun in the late morning and early afternoon. The wind direction was perfect, but then flipped side-shore right as I went to grab my board haha.

Hey guys welcome back for the Thursday NSR surf report.  The waves were smaller today running knee to stomach high with good form and the water is still a bit chilly.  Armando had the boys from New Jersey hire him again for a photo shoot so they headed out early to see what they could..
