This is the same wave as the opening frame, just further down the line. If you zoom in and look closely, you'll see Carlos' board in the barrel. He made it a good ways through the tube, but didn't quite make the exit.

Carlos was all over the place today. I think he averaged one wave every 3 minutes. Here he's trying his hand at a rodeo.

The shred-master from yesterday's report was back out in force today. His signature layback hack makes the surf report cut again.

Chris Thacker is back in town and charging. If only he'd found his toe-side edge a little earlier here ;)

Further down the line his leveraged his speed to slash through a powerful carve. Derek is looking like a solid contender for the podium of the upcoming Chompipe contest in November.

Captain Mouse showing that he is no novice at backside barrel riding. He took an excellent line into this barrel. It was a beautiful wave, one of the better rights I saw while shooting.

Chris rode a longboard, so he was able to take advantage of the smaller waves that the shortboarders couldn't catch.

Opher rotating through a nice carve. I haven't seen him out much recently, but he didn't look rusty at all out there this morning.

There were a few gentle green waves that slid through today between the sets. The intermediates were able to grab some keepers today too.

Well amigos, that wraps up today's surf action. Although the waves were softer today, it was more consistent and the quality of surfers out was higher this AM. Tomorrow looks like it will be pretty small, so it could be good to whip out the floatier and looser gear. Hasta manana.
