Los Tubos
Edit SpotAbout
Once again I only surfed this wave twice but it was a real fun wave when I surfed it and I heard it wasn't even that good of a day so I can imagine it can get pretty epic.
Atmosphere:
I only surfed the spot twice but when I was there it was very light crowds, actually most of the crowd consisted of me and my bros. I came with a positive attitude and people would just come up and say "hola me amigo". Everyone was just real nice and welcoming but if you come with a bad attitude i'm sure bad things will come.
Additional Info:
The wave throws over pretty quick but not too bad. Paddle out/in on the left of the break otherwise you will get sea urchins in every spot of your body possible.
