Hey everyone! Welcome to Sunday’s dusk session at Panga Drops. The surf was bigger today, which meant more lefts sliding through from middle peak like this one here.

Gaspard nearly managed to sneak in behind John for a party wave, but the whitewater takeoff proved a little tricky.

Further down the line, John compressed and coiled up for a bottom turn.

Stuntman John hard carrying the surf report. His big frame let's him easily set the 8ft foamie on rail.

The wind was problematic around mid-day. It was a bit sideshore. But at sunset the water surface looked like oil. Super smooth wave faces.

He even managed to nearly pull off a switch-jump floater on the end-section. Fly high John.

A perfect way to finish the day. Tomorrow should be even larger and more consistent.

French Fries has been on a hot streak all of December. Let's hope it continues and that it never gets ridiculously windy this dry-season! Hasta manana.

Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday evening’s surf report from Panga Drops. The swell height and interval were both notably higher today. So much so that most of the action was at the middle-peak, with less happening at the sandbars. Asher with a stylish entry on an outside right bomb.
