Beautiful afternoon Pyramids with good vibes, summing up the last swell nicely, going back to back with local charger @marcialmonreal #TwigSurfboards 9’0 (64L) by @klimaxsurfboards Watch: Four Epic Days at Puerto Escondido on @surfline (Link in Bio) Best run of the season lights up Zicatela Vid: @moralesedwin + @lucanohinkle Swells are the great equalizer. Wind blows over water, waves are formed, and march towards the closest coastline to break with varying degrees of quality, based on all kinds of factors — not limited to swell window, bathymetry, local winds, tides, sandbar, all that stuff. Thing is, swells don’t really care where or how they break. But we do. And in the case of this most recent XXL Southeast Pacific swell that sent Punta Lobos next level — as well as a bunch of other spots — the MVP last week was undoubtably Puerto Escondido. Not just because the southerly angle helped shape the often-closeouts into teepees. Or because many of the world’s best tuberiders — locals and visitors –were on hand to tackle said teepees. Or because the normal afternoon seabreeze actually turned around and went offshore a couple evenings. But put those three factors together, and you get some magic — some of which is captured in the edit above. As local lensperson Edwin Morales said, “It was the most amazing four days in a row we’ve seen in a long while. I don’t event remember when was the last time it happened. It was a full on barrelfest in epic conditions. Everyone was charging. The vibe was incredible. Everyone was stoked. I’m pretty much deep fried right now, but it was all worth it.” @visslasurf @surf.isurus @gorumpl @fonefoil @rockit_surf @tetongravity @futuresfins @holsternoosashoeco @thevillageidiotct @livdurban
