Lightning Bolt surfing in Costa Rica – the first pictures

The first session in Playa Hermosa
These are really out of the box pictures from Costa Rica, and only from the first two days of this Lightning Bolt Surftrip, that just started this week.
Some of our european team riders are now surfing the South Pacific Coast of Costa Rica, and they are staying right close to Pavones, one of the best surf spots of the country.
The big Bolt crew headed by the Pipeline Master Rory Russell is:
From Portugal: Nuande “Silva” Pekel, Miguel Ximenez and Joana Machado
From France: Gege Brasset, Justin Delanne and Léa Mengual
From Spain: The basque rider Txaber Trojaola
We are still waiting to receive the best photos, and as you can see, we believe there’s some swell to be ripped.

One of the best hosting friends you can have – The Crocodile
They were trying to visit the crater, and their confidence was huge…
After 8 hours of driving, almost reaching Rancho Burica.

A classic of any surftrip – Txaber Trojaola hard working

For now that’s all, but stay tunned as the best is still to come.
