It was a barrel fest right at high tide… for around 40 minutes, 10 wave sets, set after set, barrel after barrel.

You can tell the Christmas spirit is near when, after dropping in on a surfer, you get a big smile and a double shaka from him!

This lonely surfer was at first peak, waiting and waiting for those sets that never came his way, but he knew exactly how to keep himself happy while waiting.

But who cares about missing the first part of a barrel when you got the best part of the barrel? Super deep!

As you can see, the lefts were the ones throwing all the barrels, and most of them breaking at the same spot, it looked almost like a point break for a few minutes.

Forget about the Christmas spirit at the beginning… I hope you liked my Bed Time Story about Crouching Tiger and Hidden Dragon’s amazing “Surf Off”. Come back tomorrow because it will be a little bit bigger and Brian Scott will be shooting at Colorado. Silla!
