Hi everyone! Josh here again for the next few days. We had a great run of waves while Tony Z was on the report. It looks like things will be cooling down some for the next five days or so. Today’s report is from Colorados in the morning. This was the last “window of tubes” for what will likely be a few days.

The waves were fairly consistent just underneath mid-tide. The remnants of the swell were still pushing through with few surfers out. I think most folks were gassed from the epic run of waves over the past two days.

This guy had a peak all to himself. He got the pick of the litter, which meant barrels if he was patient enough to wait for the sets.

The wind was very light and beginning to puff slightly onshore. So it was a strange scenario where it was good for airs and barrels at the same time.

Vinny opting for the high-line to set up himself up with speed to work with further across the wave-face.

This goofy-footer put on a clinic this morning. He caught so many waves that I’m sure he appreciated the non-existent crowd.

Well amigos, it has indeed been an action packed past couple of days. Now that it has passed us by it feels like it only lasted a few hours haha! Congrats to those who were able to capitalize on the favorable conditions. All of that being said I’m not super optimistic on the next few days of surf, but I think we have another fun swell coming in five days or so with some offshore flow again. Fingers crossed!
