Hello, this is Chewy with the Sunday surf report! Dude, the waves were small… knee to waist high. I was lucky because I have to return to Florida next week so this will get me ready for the small waves! The water was clear though and there were a lot of people in the water.

This is my uncle Shane “Tio Congrejo” from California loving the Florida size surf! It’s easy to see why we call him uncle crab, it is tuff to get all four limbs on the board at the same time, but some how he gets it done. We give this zero style points, sorry.

We wanted to shout out this chick, who was one of the only girls out surfing. Remember, the pledges take numbers, and e-mail love poems.

Sometimes no matter how strong your will is, it’s just not there. Here’s an unknown rider looking for a barrel on a one foot wave. Not gonna happen dude.

We would like to take this time to make a public service announcement… You should wear sunscreen when you surf. Nothin’ says gringo like a lobster red sunburn (or those weird surf hoodie things, for real what’s up with that?)

Here’s me struggling, I was trying to remember how to surf one foot waves all day. I can always pull out a Jacksonville cutback when necessary, but this was all I could muster.

Everyone was bummed about the surf. Even the euro looking hostel kids with funny sunglasses! Dude don’t worry there’s still Flor de Cana in town! That’s it for today and this is probably my last day writing the report so want to say thanks to NSR for putting me up for the summer! I had an amazing time and am ready to book my flight back soon!
