It wasn't a very wide barrel, so Gavin did well to tuck up into this thing.

He's disappeared! This was going to be a tight exit with the almondy shape of the barrel.

He followed the tube up with a smooth cutback for some extra points.

This guy put everything he had into this carve. Plenty of spray to go around.

Not a bad approach from this visitor. You really have to hug the wall of the wave and sit a little higher on the face on the small ones though. Only the big, square barrels let you travel from the very bottom of the wave.

I came back in the evening just to see what was going on. The crowd was lighter, but the tide was higher. Riviera on a decent sized right.

This surfer adapted to the high-tide. Better to engage your rail and fins!

He executed perfectly on this snap! Straight of Surfing Magazine right here! Haha. I think we should see the size build over the next few days. At least that is the hope. Hasta manana.
