Kevin Gonzalez had the right board for the conditions. A longboard to cruise and walk around on.

I think it's safe to say this is Kevin's magic board.

I was impressed with his ability to turn such a large board on a dime in smaller surf.

Lucy was the MVP of today's report. She sat at the top of the peak and had it pretty much to herself.

A stylish floater! One of the best old-school moves. The back-spray adds to the aesthetic.

Yuji, John, Koji, and Hilario saw the fish jumping and knew it was time to grab the gear. It's cool to see these guys find another hobby for when the surf gets micro. Time to test Windguru's accuracy. Will the absurdly strong Papagayo winds start tomorrow as forecasted? I hope they never come, but that is unrealistic hopium. Let's see.

PANGA DROPS
Hey everyone! Welcome to Wednesday’s surf report from Pangas, specifically French Fries right. The wind was ripping pretty hard around mid-day, but it mellowed out slightly in the evening and the direction improved some. It was golden hour!

Hola Sunday Surf Fans!!! Well, I’ve been off the past few days (haven’t even seen the waves in about 5 days because I’ve been doing other types of work), but I’m sure you’ve all been enjoying Daniels great reports the last few days! So I went down there today and it actually felt like summer..
