I took some photos of locals fishing on the river and against my better judgement, I braved the river with the camera, large lens and tripod, held over my head, to the other side to take photos of Adan Hernandex, Kalle Caranza and the sayulita crew, tearing up the river mouth section. Nothing too spectacular, but some good solid shots. Some aussie guy with a Transworld Surf photog shirt on asked me how I got the equipment over the river, and I related my river crossing. He said I was brave and I said I wasn’t sure if it was bravery or just solid stupidity, I’d have to cross back over the river before I’d be able to make that call.
As I was shooting on the opposite side I thought to myself, that I’d really have regretted it, if I had come to Ticla and not gotten some really good surf shots, all because of a little river.
Once I maxed out my flash card, I packed the gear up and trudge back across the river, almost losing it twice (Marcia is glad she wasn’t there to see that one). Enjoy the photos.
i heard about this surf spot, but never seenit before ., thanks for the pictures i enjoy it !!!
