Dunno if you've stumbled across any of the big wave SUP photos trickling out of Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca Mexico lately...
Edwin Morales professional bodyboarder and XXL Billabong Monster Tube Award Photo winner, snapped this sick pit of Starboard team rider Ekolu Kalama at Playa Zicatela, aka the Mexican Pipeline...
Chuck Patterson, Hobie team rider, was captured by photog Tim Ditty, dropping into some Puerto death pits...

You can catch CP's Puerto article at
SUPSURFMAGI want to see video of the wipeouts...the Mexican Pipe is known for breaking boards and people...heaps have died here...
I used to trek down to Puerto (and environ) a couple of times a Summer to get out of the small wave Summer doldrums in Santa Barbara...and to keep tuned up for mysto Central & North Coast big wave spots...










Had the pleasure of sk8ing and trading barrels with talented (&
tormented) Dogtown skater
Jay Adams...

Jay bumped into a few problemos along the way of life...but, he's trying to get it back on track...

There's always counseling available...even, in Mexico...;-)
