It was a little slow between the sets, but when they came they offered up both lefts and rights.

He managed to stall sufficiently to get a couple seconds of shade. A good read on Jeison's part.

The rights were faster than they looked. You had to be high and tight to squeeze in there today. It was bigger, but nothing compared to some of the swells that we had last year during surf season.

The surf was surprisingly uncrowded. I guess the visiting surfers weren't monitoring the forecast carefully.

Jeison had the south peak wired. I don't think he missed many sets.

Finley found what might've been the biggest wave of the photo window. He got some good travel time, but didn't quite make the exit.

The offshores have been steady, so we can't complain about any onshore flow.

Hey everyone! Welcome to Friday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. The waves were still pretty small today, but the tide was a touch lower when I shot pics, so there were a few tubitos to be had. Lucy setting up for a high-speed right.
