Hey everyone! Welcome to Friday afternoon’s surf report from Colorados. The surf was near flat today, but it was very clean in the evening. A bunch of keen surfers were on it.

Finn was one of the MVPs today. Leave it to him to make the surf look fun when it is thigh high haha.

I don't know how he managed to get enough pop for this chop-hop. The wave had very little slope or chop to project off of.

Emma and her friend made it their mission to get as many tandem rides as possible. I was impressed with their performance!

Finn took advantage of any section or coping that came his wave. It was pretty dry out there in terms of opportunity for radical maneuvers.

You know times are tough when you see Finn going for a roundhouse like this. That's when you know the surf is gutless. Not criticizing his choice of maneuver, just that it highlights the lack of size.

The tandem couple at it again. If there was ever a day for it, today was the day.

This surfer got a little outpaced, but tried to pull the uno reverse card and stylish fade. Make it look like he wasn't getting rejected by the section haha. Creativity points.

A little cross-stepping from our rider in blue. I think he likely is a shortboarder, but made the smart move of renting a longboard from NSR to enjoy today's micro-waves.

Under the lip and playing with fire! No risk, no reward! Tomorrow should be a touch bigger. Hopefully the winds continue to say down a bit. Hasta manana.
