Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from main peak Pangas. It was small again today, so much so that John had the lineup all to himself.

The well-known backside slash at work. John is married to the Ricky Carroll now haha.

Lift those toes! Gotta engage that heel-side rail sufficiently for the roundhouse.

Coiling up and dropping his back elbow to set up a big off-the-top.

Oye! His timing was probably slightly off here, as he connected with the lip in a lower than ideal part of the wave-face. Still infinitely better than my non-existent session today haha.

BAM! John was playing around with this power carve. This turn must’ve felt really nice in comparison to the majority of the soft faces from the majority of today’s waves.

Here we go! His timing was spot on here with the end-section attack.

He can’t let his carves get rusty. Otherwise he won’t be capable of offering free showers to the surfers sitting out the back in future sessions.

John did an excellent job of not letting any steep sections go to waste today.

These slightly more critical end-sections are highly coveted on gutless days like today.

A good sequence of rotation is necessary to execute roundhouses like these.

This was John’s overall review of today’s conditions and water temp haha! Oh well, we take what the ocean gives us. The good news is that March is looking like a relatively good and consistent month swell-wise so we can all train and hope for that. Take it easy guys and have a good one.
