Playa Alicia turns on

Day 11: After a couple days of super small push, a nice ENE swell pumped into the Sosua area and the Lopez Brothers were in search for skim with size. Early in the morning, the brothers skimmed Playa Chiquita with a tide that was a bit low for the swell. After an hour, they decided to check Sosua's jem, Playa Alicia. Her gorgeous shoulder high wedging peaks left the boys in awe. . . Super steep wraps and liners were plentiful . . . . . . .

No Swell, No Worries

Day 8: The Lopez Bro's took another day off due to small swell. So Alejandro with footage he had on hand, cooked up an edit of Magen's Bay. Enjoy!

Ey (Playa) Chiquita tu es Bonita!

Day 7: Even though the easterly trade swell drops, the Lopez Brothers still got to play around with perfect lil launch ramps and baby liners. Nick sat this session out but got behind the camera and got some irie shots. Bup Bup!

Day 6: After multiple skim sessions daily the Lopez Brothers were exhuasted so took a layday. But this is some of what they dreamt about.

Day 5: The Lopez Brothers are back at Playa Chiquita where the waves are good once again. A few siders were pushing though but the peaky backside wraps and frontside lines had the boys attention throughout the session.

Day 4: The East swell picks up along with the wind leaving the Lopez Bro's wondering what across the street looks like. Playa Alicia was small and the wind was wrapping offshore. Beautiful wraps and wedgy A-frames were traded off among the brothers til sundown.

Day 3: In search of new waves, The Lopez Bro's came across lots of potential on a beach tucked inside of the gated community of Perla Marina. Armando Merker, tour-guide, translator and amigo made it all happen with local knowledge and hook-ups. Muchas Gracias Armando :) !
