We got up early again chowed down food fast. We packed the truck and were out of there in record time. An hour later we rolled into lobitos to see an already packed line up and some shoulder high waves.

Most of the crew paddled out. I shot for a bit as the guys grabbed a couple of the waves. I headed out for a quick surf. I scored a couple fun waves, but none of the set waves. After the couple waves, I headed in to get the camera and swam back out as the waves started to roll in with some size.

I shot for about an hour and a half before I got too cold and headed in as the wind was picking up. Some of the local liters showed up and pumped up. It was a bit off shore and mega gusty. So we gathered the troops and packed the truck and headed to tres crosses.

Today’s session was much better than yesterdays as the waves were very fun even though the wind as a bit lighter. The guys rigged 10-12s and smacked some lips. I shot the hole time as the crew was packing up to leave I grabbed a kite for two waves. It was probably one of my top five kite sessions, even though I only got two waves. The wind lined up perfectly for unhooked smacks. The head high waves didn’t hurt the session either. We cruised back to the resort on a dusty durst trail as the subset over the ocean. It was a very fun drive back. We ate dinner looked at a couple photos and hit the bed for another long fun day.
