There were surfers coming in and out of the water, kinda like taking turns to catch waves… it never felt crowded.

Even with high tide, once in a while a good hollow wave appears and this guy didn’t miss the opportunity to score the best barrel of today’s report.

As always, everyone was looking to get barreled, this guy put on the breaks using both hands but still couldn’t slow down to get in there.

Check out Louis Carreon (@louiscarreon) visiting from LA, on a nice set wave. He was definitely under the lip so I count that as a barrel.

Another great barrel during high tide… I bet at a low tide were a lot more barrels.
