Somewhere in Nicaragua

We will start the day off with a pretty cool shot of Alejandro from Venezuela.  There were guys from all over the world out here with us today.

Here is a sick photo of Chris from Popoyo.  This is one of the many sick set waves that he snagged today.  You would not believe how many shots we had to choose from.

We had a special appearance from a couple of world traveling pros that heard about the swell we’re getting in Nicaragua.  This is Keith Malloy from California and take it from us he was killing the waves.  It is our pleasure to have you with us and watch you make it look so easy.

We also had Peter Mendia from Florida making the trip down.  Take our word for it he is one of the most powerful and fluid surfers we have ever seen.

Our very own D-lite made the trip with us this morning and was having a super fun session.  There were a lot of barrels to be had but there were also some fun waves to do some fun maneuvers as well.

Here is another traveling surfer from Brazil.  His name is Guillermo and he was getting his fare share of good set waves.  If you happen to be in the line up with us today and want to see more of the photos we took, be sure to check out NSR Surf Shots.com!!

Here is a shot of our good friend John who recently picked up a new sponsor from Ace Hardware.  You are making them proud buddy.

Here is the barrel sequence of the day from our very own Pancho Sanchez.  Here is the first pic of him setting up what turns out to be a sick tube ride.

Shot # 2, looking down the line at this beast.

Shot # 3, already setting it up for the kill.

Shot # 4, Getting ready to get super deep, but in total control.

Shot # 5, Check out the lip on this thing and no sign of Pancho.

Shot # 6, The second section folding with D-lite enjoying the show from out front.

Shot # 7, with plenty of tube left to ride.

Shot # 8, and is there daylight at the end of this tunnel?

Shot # 9, Look where D-lites head is now.

Shot # 10, “Wow this wave is insane! Don’t you wish you could have been here today?

Shot # 11, Out, That’s all folks!!

This is Pancho Sanchez, with one his favorite boards.  This is the price you sometimes have to pay when the waves are firing.  Good thing you have plenty more where that one came from my friend.

Here is another shot of D-lite with a sick snap on one of the smaller lefts.  Nice style Bro!!

This is a sweet left with an unknown pale rider.  There were plenty of waves to be had by all.

We thought that this was a cool angle of this killer right.  Here we have Richard, who is also from Brazil.

Yet another unknown surfer with a nice off the top on this left.

This is another good friend of ours, his name is Broudy and he was getting a bunch of sick pits all over the place.  Check out how high and tight he is in this one.

Here is Ted setting up for sweet left that peeled all the way to the beach.  Nice one!!

We got a killer sequence of D-lite getting shacked on this left.  Shot # 1 barely catching the rail on the drop.

Shot # 2, trying to make it under the lip.

Shot # 3, It’s all gravy from here on out.

Shot # 4, totally out of site.

Shot # 5, Deep inside the greenroom.

Shot # 6, Still going.

Shot # 7, The waves were firing today!

Shot # 8, Dwight was stoked he took the ride with us this morning, what do you think?

We are getting tired of typing so for next photos we are just going to say who the surfers are and let you think up your own stories.  This is Tonny from Cal getting into a sick one.

We had a little bit of sugar in the water today getting some sweet ones.  Nice style dude!!!

One unknown Brazilian surfer setting up for the barrel section.  All we have to say now, itwassick!!!!!!!!

The waves are supposed to be smaller tomorrow but it should be still pretty fun.  Check us back out.
