Hey boys, this is Lucha Libre Garcia with a quick update from Playa Hermosa with the Quiksilver Pitayas Surf Contest.  The waves were super fun today, running about chest to head high on the bigger sets, the winds were nice offshore and the water was cold.

And a couple of other ones were taking advantage on the food.  Chicken, tajadas and salad sounds great when you are starving, doesn’t it?
