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.

Hand in the face and time to compress. He's got that sequence of moves correct.

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.
