Somewhere in Nicaragua
We’ve got chest high waves with some head high sets and offshore winds all day today at Maderas. I can’t believe we get bummed when the waves are like this, but we do – does that mean we are spoiled?
Here is Gerardo, riding a new retro-classic from Eberly – the perfect board for days like today.
Here is one of the three brothers who run the hostel at Maderas. We call him “Don King”, but other than that I have no idea what his real name is. He was giving me a hard time today that I never put up any surfing pictures of him. I wonder why?
RECENT REPORTS
Hey everyone! Welcome to Wednesday evening’s surf report from Colorados. Surprisingly, the past couple days of swell were just powerful enough for some decent waves to break at our favorite spot.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The swell was notably stronger than I expected. Some early season Pacific power! Middle peak was the place to be, but it was windy.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were pretty much firing when I rocked up to take pictures, but just like yesterday the wind went side-shore as soon as I put the camera away. At least some surfers caught the magic window.
