Hey bro, listen, we donīt talk shit about Puerto Rico, we just say it like an example of localims in the Caribbean. Not because someone said that to me, is that Iīve been there many times, and couple of time locals send me to the inside to surf the bad waves, even if I show respect to them and many of them jump on my waves too. So letīs be clear here, the experiences talk! And there is more surfers that in DR. I donīt see dominicans are that rude in the water, of course if you arrived to the beach with 10 more friend and you guys want to surf the same spot of course dominican will claim for respect!
