Oh, there’s an electricity in the air in California tonight. As the Pacific remains pacified, parties are descending on the Central Valley, and believe me, Lemoore is firing, its humble population of 26,199 now joined by at least 10 and possibly 12 hand-picked invitees.  While following whatever wave pool rabbit holes we could stumble upon—in the WSL’s absence of any public acknowledgment of the event even happening, and despite dozens and dozens of shrugged-shouldered confirmations—the below clip of Caio Ibelli landed in our laps…

Last week, reports coming back from visiting parties confirmed major improvements in wave quality, interval, length, etc. and the clip above demonstrates just that, the wave changing pace as it grows, slowing down and opening up for open-faced rail work, a few moments where, with a little familiarity, the featherweights might fly. There’s a few insanely fun looking double-up sections, too, the last of which puffs Caio out with an ever subtle poofffff.
