PLAYA COLORADO

Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. Welcome to Wednesday morning’s surf report from Playa Colorado. The size was down notably from yesterday, but there were still a few clean corners. It was fast and the sets were stretching across the beach though. This guy got some good ones and made sure not to go easy on the gas pedal.

I did see a few sneaky tubitos, but you really had to get lucky with the right set wave to find those ones.

This guy found a nice open corner for a quick blast off the top.

The rights had more potential and opportunity for big moves or tubitos, but were harder to find and track down than the lefts.

Lance didn't shy away from a chance at some tunnel vision.

His board looked fun for today's conditions. It looked like it really well into the slope (or lack thereof) of the waves. More disc-like than a standard performance shortboard.

This guy nearly found some shade here. If he'd managed to wipe off a bit more speed, or anticipated the little pitch in the lip just a second earlier, then he would've got the tubito.

This guy's foresight was better than some of the rest. Here he's spotted a potential tube section ahead, and is wiping off a little speed.

He did pull in! But it ended up shutting down on him. Better to have given it a go than not. It's still fun to get some travel time in a closeout!

The surf was mellow today. A bit gutless and underwhelming. Not tiny, but I'm starting to get a little stir crazy since we haven't had a real push in the swell since the first week of the month. I get to practice my patience haha! The forecast looks small (but not flat) to medium-size for the foreseeable future. So tomorrow will be similar to today, maybe a touch bigger if we are lucky. Hasta manana.

Howdy and Happy Saturday surf friends! We had some gloomy weather today and with it came brought some onshore winds which made the surf pretty crumbly and mixed up. However there was a little bit of swell still out there from the last few days lingering around; but the water is super nice and warm..
