SURFING PANAMA: LAST MINUTE

Partner-in-crime needed to evade la policia, share car rental/gas expense, and share lodgings for car camping/cabanas trip on Panama's Pacific coast between Morro Negrito & Puerto Armuelles. This week/next week. Peak of swell should be Monday with nice slow tapering off over a few days.

Will use my house in San Carlos as a base for exploring west, extending maggot privileges to righteous dude/dudette. All my friends here have no money, and/or no time.

damn it.

That sounds unsuckworthy. Damn not having a paycheck!

Today was 4-6' @ 17 seconds, and offshore, so the points in San Carlos were going off. Should be quality for several days more, and the long-term looks really good:

Found this video from la Autoridad de Turismo Panamá promoting the ISA World Mastes at Santa Catalina (27 AUG - 5 SEP). Stoked to see my neighbor Italo featured near the end, he was owning Punta Palmar this morning.

I need to come visit you...

Post some pictures instead of tables. I can see the tables from my desk, I'd rather be looking at the goods.

I have no pictures from the San Carlos area - I go on my bike so the camera never goes to the beach. Three swells peaked during three weeks that made it worth staying home, since local points were all 4-6', reeling, and clean.

I traveled to Los Santos solo, so all I have are from there are line-up shots. It was all 3-6' at 12-16 seconds from the south on a fading swell. Fun conditions but the pics make it look lame.

CIRUELO: Super fun 3-4' and working. Solo session.

VENAO: Small here is still large. 4-6' beach break. You can see one guy going over the top outside. 10 guys out.

GUANICO: 4-7', clean. The surprise of the trip. Four in the line-up.

CAMBUTAL: 2-3' here at the beach, much larger outside. Another solo sesh.
