Hannes Surf Trip
/bottom turn to so many possibilities
We have been having so much fun with so many surf trips and meeting incredible people that we have not been able to post for awhile. This our friend Hannes back in September of 2022. Hannes was looking to stay about a month in Panama touring the different breaks and enjoying the local culture; but before he went off on his own, he wanted to go on a surf trip with us so to get to know some surf breaks, learn about swells and weather in September and get to know the local environment so that he could better plan the rest of his month

Just an hour off the airport and we stumble upon some small but fun waves at a break close to the city, Did not take Hannes much time to start getting into the Panama rhythm
setting up for a quick peaky right
September is right in the middle of the rainy season and it is mostly cloudy and rainy… but if you know where to go, you can find some really fun waves with few people around and Hannes took the opportunity to just get as many waves as he could
Sunny afternoon
Long beautiful cutbacks on a sunny afternoon
We found a beachbreak that offered some really fun long lefts. The waves started somewhat soft which made is great for long cutbacks and Hannes was relentless just practicing longer and rounder cutbacks
bumpy pointbreak with long rights
Hannes is just such a great person and so fun to go surfing with. Really did not need much for him to smile: just some hours of surf in the morning and a couple more in the afternoon and he was happy.
