Somewhere in Nicaragua
People from all over the town start showing up to the party, on barefoot, on bikes, and anything that they could ride, including the brand new NICA 4×4 invention. Welcome to the party everyone!!!
Carlitos and Quesitos were talking to the kids for a little while, making some new friendships while Pancho recorded the action and they also had a little bit of time to teach them a little bit of english. Where are you Zacateca!!!???
Did I say more than 100 kids? Check out the scene, waiting for the piñata to get broken and pick up some candies!
Then we continued our party giving toys, drinks and snacks away to every kid that was part of the party. The mothers were an enormous help in organizing and directing traffic. This event definitely would not have been possible without them.
We want to say thanks so much to everyone that make this possible. So many of you from the NSR community responded with donations. It was a huge help and we want to wish you all Merry Christmas and sick waves for next year. THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!
After the party was over, everyone picked up the trash and went home to enjoy the holidays.
Carlos Caliente chiming in……..speaking of making this Christmas giving event possible, a huge shout out and well deserved thanks goes to Roberto “Lucha Libre” Garcia and his wife Luz for spearheading this project every year. I’d also like to welcome my family down to Nicaragua. My dad Shannon and his wife Carol are visiting from Arizona. Here they are rockin’ the SUP as if they lived on the ocean instead of in the desert.
This monring we made it to the beach, hoping to score some fun waves and we did. Well over head set waves, sweet offshore winds, uncrowded lineup, cool and nice water added to the conditions. Check it out!!!
El Codo Lopez, Botetas and Chulin were the only ones out in the whole lineup. They were charging some nice sized waves rolling in at Machete Pt. El Codo Lopez with a late take off on his backside.
I was looking for different angles and it worked out pretty well. If you have been to Machete Pt you can tell how deep the waves were breaking today judging for this angle. That is the spot were you do not want to be!
El Botetas throwing buckets with a sick turn. There is so much water in that spray that we can not even see him.
Meanwile Chulin was still killing it at Machete Pt. Here he is caught pulling into a huge section.
