Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hey pals, hope all is doing well everywhere around the world. This is Lucha Libre with a couple of cool shots from the bay in San Juan del Sur. The surf has been super fun lately right out front. Everybody is more than happy to save the drive all the way up to Playa Maderas on that awful road after the huge rains we had. Waves were running about chest to shoulder high on sets with nice offshore winds all day long. Check it out!!!
Devin “Mr. Yogurt” wanted to ride some fun ones but first he had to fix one of his many broken fins. Here he is trying to get his board ready to go shred and snap another fin.
Sometimes it is very hard to fix a board on your own, so you need professional help. We are going to recommend Kambute’s SurfBoard Repair, the best in town. Since Devin couldn’t fix his board he opted to take a big panga out and was having a blast out there. Here I caught him trying to ride this one backwards.
The local kids were killing it, as always. Check out Rex “La Bestia” Calderon busting a sick frontside air from a nice backside perspective.
As you saw before “El Monito” Solis picked up some nice ones. Here is another shot of him, this time ripping the lip off. At the end of the day we asked him how the waves were and he said. Estuvo divertido!!!
Shot 2, still going!
Shot 4, is he gonna make it?
The light got so sweet by the end of the day but the waves were getting smaller because the tide was getting low. Hugo Naranja about to get some juice!
RECENT REPORTS
Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday afternoon’s report from Panga Drops. The waves were definitely cleaner and better today, but still fairly small.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday afternoon’s surf report from Panga Drops. The ESE devil wind flared up this afternoon. I had to coax John into paddling out and playing stuntman at French Fries.
Hey amigos! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. This Wednesday’s report is coming your way from Panga Drops. It was a little inconsistent, but there was a bit more size today on the sets. All of these peaks had their moments today too. Lucy setting up for a super clean right..
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Hi everybody, this is the NSR family bringing all the action for this Thursday surf report. Today we went to the beach in the morning. There were a few people in the water, and the waves were running about waist to shoulder high on sets with nice offshore winds. Check out the lineup!!!
We’ve got a HUGE announcement to make today. We’d like you all to meet the newest member of the NSR family – our beautiful daughter “Safari Lee”. She was born on October 1, 2008 and weighed in at 6lbs 11oz. Hands down, it was the most amazing experience of our lives and we couldn’t be..
Welcome to the onshore surf report, i don’t even have to say how the conditions are. Check out this duty shot out here at Maderas. It’s mushy and moody!!!
