Pequeños Embajadores 2012
Jafet Ramos takes it all!
Pequeños Embajadores de Surf 2012 (words by Tuuli Nummi)
This weekend the children from Puerto Escondido and Chacahua gathered to celebrate the Children’s day at Carrizalillo beach for the annual “Pequeños Embajadores del Surf” or “Little Surfing Ambassadors”. The conditions were better than expected and the audience as well, as the organizers were stoked to see 2-3 foot waves, perfect size for the kids to rip and have fun. The event was the first one held by the new Association of the Surf in the State of Oaxaca.
There were a total of 45 competitors in 5 different categories and an expression session heat for kids under 10 years old who were the standout of the whole event. Jafet Ramos took the first place of two categories, Under 18 and Under 16 by having the best performance of the whole event during both finals, showing his talent. He showed his repertoire of speed, power, flow and innovative maneuvers, taking the two main categories. Sebastian Williams won the first place giving a demonstration of flawless surf and a unique style. Daniela Ramos (Jafet’s sister) won the girls category and Tehuen Petroni took the honors for the bodyboarding division.
In the end, the main goal was accomplished. It was an event to celebrate the Child’s Day and they all had a great time at the beach watching good surf and living the dream.
We want to thank our sponsors for all their support. Quiksilver, Super Vital, La Juquileña, Gelateria LA Malagueña, Pizzas Mediterraneo, Colorada, Leo y Ale Noguera, Beyond, Detona, Cafeteria Carrizalillo and a huge shout out to the volunteers and the Puerto Escondido Lifeguards for taking good care of our children.

March 10th Gallery
Smaller Swell…
March 10th was not as big as yesterday, but waves were a bit more clean and perfect. Although the current was still there to make things harder, there were some pristine moments.
Here’s a gallery of todays action. New swell coming in a couple of days.
Stay tuned…

Quik Pro Puerto Day 1
Good Conditions!!
The fist day of action was good with fun surf. Wave heights were between 2-5 foot and the tide was dropping all morning which means more barrels!
Cesar Petroni was the local standout of the day advancing in 1st place to the next round with a couple of barrels. Ezequiel Lau, winner of the Quik Pro El Salvador last week, nailed the highest score of the comp, backdooring a sick righthander and coming out with a 9.5 out of 10.
The comp resumes this afternoon if the conditions allow it. Stay tuned for more action of round 2. Meanwhile check out the photos of the first day.
