PLAYA COLORADO

Hey amigos! Welcome to Friday’s surf report from Colorados. The waves unexpectedly turned on in the evening after being so-so, due to poor wind conditions, during the day.

This is further down the line on the opening frame's wave. The surfer didn't make the drop, but he did give it a look! There were some thick ones this evening on the sets.

This guy's paddle line wasn't bad, but the shallow sandbars combined with outward flowing rip-currents made for very steep drops.

There was a crew on it this evening, but still some empty sets as it was hard to be appropriately positioned due to the currents and shifty peaks.

I saw a few guys nearly snap boards out there. No actual damage done in the end though. A good look from this rider here.

Overhead sets. Finally some swell pulling through for us. Surflie getting a brief pat on the back from me.

A little trigger happy on the jump here! He should've held on somewhat longer in my opinion. There are risks associated with delaying the dismount, but this was premature IMO.

Even the insiders were draining hard if they were thick enough.

Who would've thought that a guy on a foamie would've been sending it harder than 80% of the lineup?

He did as well as he could have, but this chandelier section obstructed his line through the barrel.

It was a magic sunset window after a lackluster day of waves. Hopefully we get more time with favorable wind tomorrow. See y'all.

PANGA DROPS

Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were small today, but a few people got a very clean window. The vicious off-shores are supposed to start tomorrow, so they might’ve got the last of the good stuff for a bit.

PANGA DROPS

Hey everyone, welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The waves were actually pretty epic for off-season today. Most of the shredders had already exited for lunch break when I showed up with the camera though. You’ll still get a rough sense of the quality of surf though.
