Isla Grande Contest 2009

Last Saturday and Sunday I went to the first stop of the national surfing tour. It took place at Isla Grande, on the Caribbean side of the country. Conditions totally sucked. The waves had size.. they were like 'till 4 ft. but too much wind and the current was pulling so hard. The competition was okay, I had fun hangin' out and stuff. Here I'm posting some pictures..

I took those pictures at Isla Grande, Panama on Sunday February 1st. It was a really fun day, the waves were small but good wind conditions and lots of friends. I had a great time. Here I'm gonna share some pictures
