Gabriel Villarán, Cristobal de Col and Luis Gómez de la Torre found a giant, tubular left somewhere in the Arequipa area, about 1000 kilometers south of Lima, quite close to the border between Peru and Chile.
After several days of tireless searching, finding several waves with potential but that for Gabriel were not perfect enough, after turning a curve, they found this left-hander.
From triple to four overhead, it allowed them to get off step offs and tow in a couple of waves.
The best was taken by the captain of the mission, Villarán, who hit an epic shot.
This is the second episode of the Searching Perú series directed by Peruvian filmmaker Jose Madalengoitia.
