Local Surfers: This is a showcase of the local surfing talent here in El Salvador. Many of these guys don't get a chance to be seen by many major surf companies but their talent far exceeds many of their North American competitors of the same age. If you know of potential sponsors or companies looking to get amazing photography with competitive and free-surfers, please contact us and we can help you get set up with some of these young athletes.

Giovanni Diaz
Goofy-footed Giovanni Diaz has recently landed a nice sponsorship with Pepsi and another with Qi-X Surfboards. Giovanni has just won first place in two major local competitions.

Juan Carlos Ramos
There's a lot of hype following Juan Carlos' surfing and if you see him busting airs at Bocanita you'll see why. He has traveled to just about every country in Latin America to compete on the ALAS tour so keep an eye on his progress. Juan is a pro surfer for Qi-X surfboards.

Jimmy Rotherham
Enough said just with his name, Pro Surfer for Quiksilver and lifelong local at Punta Roca.

Wilbur Alvarenga
Wilbur Alvarenga or "Policía" as he is known locally, is one of the best surfers in all of Latin America. He competes frequently on the ALAS tour. Congrats to Policía on winning the 2007 Quiksilver Pro at Punta Roca!
