Awesome job! willing to go to Chicama to enjoy the point.

[@mahafeitosa]

Thanks Ankel! You should totally go. Just make sure to look up the swells and time yourself.

Your footage is gorgeous. What camera and lenses did you use here?

[@mahafeitosa]

Thank you Justin. I am using a Fujifilm XE-3 and lenses are a 23mm and a 55-200mm.

I went last May. I saw the couple n the VW. Had a great time. Got 2 different big swells. As a goofy foot it is a lot of fun.

[@mahafeitosa]

Ah awesome you met the guys in the VW. And ye, as a goofy myself I can only agree. Most of Peru's surf I did was constant lefts.

Thanks for sharing!

[@mahafeitosa]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@jimihendrixx11]

Thanks…looks great! Your production & style is really good- like a short film. Long paddle out? Sand the whole way?

[@mahafeitosa]

Thanks a lot man! Not long paddle out but rocks here and there, especially at the El Point. Make sure to step slowly as you get in.

Hi guys, nice job!! What's the best time to go?

[@mahafeitosa]

Thanks! It seems like the highest and more consistent swells are in the June / July months.

[@eprohoda]

howdy?,yeah,you did unusual job. talk you later!🤩

The one thing I took away was the lack of locals bullying people off the waves like you see in California and Hawaii

[@mahafeitosa]

Definitely. All my surf sessions there were super chilled in terms of localism or bullying. Even when the good swell came in and it got packed, it was still enough waves for everyone.
