Tubes were rare this evening, so snaps and carves were the main menu items.

Carlitos was the only surfer who managed to find some tube time this evening. The advantages of being a grom.

An unknown rider digging deep on this bottom turn. Good setup for a sharp top-turn.

This is further down the line on the same wave. You can see he's no novice at getting up in the lip.

Carlitos with the barrel of the photo session. Ideally he would've taken off deeper such that he would already be in the rounder section seen behind him here, but still a good ride for the young buck.

Lookey there, he managed to disappear for a second. He got kinda hosed by the crumbly section, but it didn't seen to bother him much.

The calm before the storm... If Surfline is right. If next week is small, then everyone should collaborate and short Surfline's non-existent publicly traded stock into the ground. They are claiming next week will be all time, but I'm going to try to level my expectations haha! See you all tomorrow.

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.

Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday afternoon’s surf report from French Fries. The wind was strong, but the direction of the wind was fine. I’d argue there was a touch more power and consistency today, so better waves.
