Warming Up for World Longboard Championship 2013, Punta Huanchaco

Punta Huanchaco Surf Photo: 'Warming Up for World Longboard Championship 2013' by Inside-Peru

Some of the best longboarders in the world were present in the days before the first ISA World Longboard Championships in Huanchaco, Peru. This spot is 2 blocks from our apartment. Check out the wave consistency - It's October here and 0% flat days, mostly 4-6 feet, the most consistent spot I've ever seen. Waves are not tubular, though.
