Bo pulled out the mid-length for some variety on a relatively mellow day. Not a bad idea. Stylish grab rail off-the-lip to close this right.

If this guy had compressed and taken a tight line then he might've found a tubito.

Turns were in the cards with the medium sized surf. Ripping the face off of this left!

There were still opportunities for barrels if you found the right set waves. The conditions were near ideal wind-wise this morning.

Sarah working on staying tight to the wall. This one didn't quite pitch enough to give her an entry.

Lucy kept it a bit smoother and more casual with this turn. Her rail work looks good these days.

You can see that the sets still had some size. I was surprised. Not huge, but not as small as yesterday in the early afternoon.

All three of the turns, this being the second, were in the pocket and with speed. Excellent surfing given the lower push from the waves.

Bo closing the report with a nice right. He put himself in the spot, but it was a bit too small of a wave. He's all prepared for the next push of swell starting tomorrow through Monday or Tuesday.

Further down the line he roped through a smooth, yet strong frontside roundhouse.

Way to power through on the mid-length Bo! Extra spray displaced from the bigger board (and presumably larger fins?).

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.
