Somewhere in Nicaragua
Still in Puerto (man, it’s tough to leave this place)- we’ve still got big, perfect barrels coming in out here. A couple of them get by unridden and create classic photos.
Hot Carl did manage to get himself into the International Boogie Board Contest. All the pros are here, Boogie Magazine, the Boogie groupies and of course, the Morey Boogie Bikini Team. This is Hot Carl letting it all hang out during his first round heat. Man, he was charging!
…and while Hot Carl didn’t make it out of this one, he made it out of enough others (on a borrowed boogie I might add) to advance to tomorrow’s second round. We’ll see how he does against some of the world’s most respected and renowned boogie boarders. Check back!
Roberto with the surf report. It’s Head high on sets and the wind is offshore. The crowds in Nicaragua, I couldn’t finish the count.
Byron taking the last wave of the trip.
John.
See you next year guys.
Nice.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday evening’s surf report from Colorados. The swell was bigger and stronger today, but it was very slow between the sets. I think the lack of a secondary swell combined with the sandbars not being in perfect shape made for long waits.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday evening’s surf report from Colorados. It wasn’t as big as I was expecting, but there was still some push.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Sunday evening’s surf report from Panga Drops / French Fries. It was very clean, but smaller than yesterday which caught me off-guard. There were still some pretty waves for the handful of surfers that were out.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
OK, so we’ve got some killer water shots sent in by Brent at Arena Caliente. We are taking a vacation this week (read: we are not in Nicaragua), but we hope to have plenty of pictures and reports sent in from our affiliates. Thanks Brent! We’ve got chest to head high sets today at Maderas..
