3rd is there. Might be too big to enjoy.

I'd definitely be a little nervous. Hope he's having a blast!

I watched Tres do it's thing during the peak on Saturday. The pictures make it look pretty. It was shifting around and sometimes sections would detonate on riders down the line. Very long paddle out and really easy to get in a heavy situation that day. Everyone surfing had big guns, only a couple of skis that looked like they were only there for their guys. Saw a few paddle out on maybe 7-8' step ups. I doubt they got into any of the bombs. We surfed little Malibu, which was really fun but somewhat embarrassing as the mad men paddled by on the way out to Tres, haha.

Also watched very heavy gas chambers and wishing wells, including a rescue. Maria's was deadly looking, nobody out.

Traveling there was a bit of a hassle, have to get a molecular covid test within 72 hours of arrival, and paperwork. The PR health department checks on you every day. Everyone wearing masks in public, even outside. Temperature checks at every store and restaurant.

We caught Surfers and Shacks head high and clean without much crowd for a couple of days before the monster swell and wind on Saturday.
