Hello everyone, how's your week so far? I hope everyone is feeling good and if you don't, here is today's surf report to lift your mood with awesome Colorado waves, check it out!

Javier Baldovinos

With last night's full moon, the tide was coming fast, and this is how it looks at mid-tide!

Javier Baldovinos

It's unusual to see white caps on top of the indicator, and when you see it, get ready because it's coming baby!

Javier Baldovinos

The sets were big, heavy, fast and scary, but also beautiful.

Javier Baldovinos

With just a few surfers in the water, there were many, many perfect waves gone unridden.

Javier Baldovinos

There were less than 10 surfers in the water, most of them getting some really nice barrels.

Javier Baldovinos

Most of the waves in between sets had a great shape and better suit for riding them.

Javier Baldovinos

People around the world are staying inside... well, the local surfers are just trying to follow the rules.

Javier Baldovinos

The foreigners that call Colorado Home are just doing the same.

Javier Baldovinos

@Carlosdecolorados was out... actually in, because he spent more time in the shade than out in the sun.

Javier Baldovinos

Jason was another local scoring some of the barrels of the day.

Check out Carlos with a gnarly vertical drop on this perfect left.

Followed by a gnarly full-speed barrel.

Today's winner of the Ride of the Day award goes to Jason... here he's setting up his line.

Javier Baldovinos

Since the beginning he knew he had picked the right line, he started to celebrate right away!

Javier Baldovinos

Holding the line and controlling the speed while enjoying the view.

Javier Baldovinos

He went deep inside the monster's throat.

Javier Baldovinos

And he stayed tall and committed all the way until the monster's fangs went down blocking his way out. It was beautiful!

Second place goes to Carlos on this beautiful right. Check out the sequence:

Javier Baldovinos

It was a fast one so Carlos was pumping his way through it.

Javier Baldovinos

He's just a master of speed control... dancing on the line between hitting the gas to pass a section and stalling to get deeper in the barrel.

Javier Baldovinos

Stalling...

Javier Baldovinos

... and putting the pedal to the metal.

Javier Baldovinos

And getting out right before getting eaten.

Javier Baldovinos

Namaste Sensei Carlos.
