Feliz Martes amigos! What started out as looking like a much smaller (less swell) kind of day, it was a good thing I trusted my instincts and waited patiently for that medium high tide push. If you’ve been following along, it’s been all about the perfect tide the past few weeks; and today everyone that’s been paying attention with the  “In the know” time to hit it, were having a blast out there!

Didn’t look like this earlier on the low tide. But there were also a lot less people then, too.

Do you see any resemblance to Rutci?? Well, you should. That’s little Carlitos, taking on after her mamas style and surf stoke!

Looking back over at the reef, I saw this set approaching and swung the camera around just in time to nab this nice little empty nugget. Looks like only one dude out there surfing it all alone.

Kenny, who actually kills it up at the reef and some other little nooks and crannies of secret spots around the area, came today to play with the barrels.

So yesterday there was only one single barrel that I saw ridden, and today it was back to a lot of barrels and quite possibly we’re seeing some front runners of this new swell that’s heading our way. Mystery barrel surfer….. por que no?

Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. The size dropped even more today, but there were still a few finale sets that rolled through in the morning. I guess everyone was burned out from the last swell as the crowd was light all day long.

Welcome back for the Monday surf report. It was onshore and not how I thought it would look or imagined for today, but then again, I didn’t bother to look at the wind/weather report. Normally I never look (especially after the non stop days of sun shinny weather we’ve been having; that and it’s May…
