A few unknown local boys were out there crushing it. If I had to guess I would say they are from Gigante, but I'm not sure about that.

This regular foot guy was the superstar of today's report. His quick, sharp, and springy turns easily captured the attention of everyone on the beach.

He threw a lot of spray for being such a thin dude.

Grant found a few left corners, but I could tell he wasn't stoked on the lack of rights, since French Fries wasn't working.

Further down the line he nearly found a tubito. He would've made it had it not pinched at the far end.

The MVP almost got a bit too far out on the face here. He managed to skate back into the pocket though.

Good vision and mechanics from this kiddo. They made the surf look better than it was out there. The light lumps on the wave-faces from the East wind were tricky to navigate.

Kalani cruising with the birds. It was a fun day of swell. Nothing epic, but nice to surf a different type of wave. Bigger, but pretty fat and slow compared to French Fries. Tomorrow we should be back to the standard French Fry grind. Hasta manana.
