This guy had the right idea, pulling out the mid-length for the mellower conditions. Cheater five for the win!

John paddled out for a few waves. He was hoping for more size, but still managed to squeak a few turns in on his shortboard.

Taking your time and staying on rail are necessary steps to succeeding at mellow Pangas.

The whales tried to do us a solid by attempting to make some extra waves for us!

There we go John! It just took a proper set wave for him to find his power and groove.

Slow and steady wins the race at small Pangas. It was a fun day of waves, but nothing too exciting.

I saw a few people go for horseback rides during low-tide. The sand was flat and compact which made for an ideal horse track. The weather was perfect for it this morning too! Tomorrow should be similar size-wise, but I'll bring you the best action I can capture. See ya!

PANGA DROPS
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.
