PLAYA SANTANA
Happy Monday everyone! I´m Baldo reporting from Santana beach. This morning the waves looked like they had a great weekend because they were kinda small and shy, and the overcast sky didn´t help much with the mood.
The water was cold and the offshore wind strong, but that didn´t stop the waves to break with a good shape whenever they appear. Here is one of the few good waves at first peak that came through.
Here is the right on a better angle. You just had to pick the right shoulder to go all the way on a nice ride.
And by saying “kinda crazy”, I mean that a few surfers in the water didn´t know nothing about the ethics of surfing, dropping in occasionally into somebody else´s wave creating some “love” demonstrations in the water.
Craziness took place and we started seen some funny behaviors among the surfers… like this guy practicing a one hand stand break dance move on his surfboard.
Or like Jan practicing his Michael Jackson moves on this little right.
How about the girl that took too serious what people say about surfing and yoga, that they go well together… first cobra pose, then plank and finishing with pigeon pose… on the same wave! (I would like to thank Google Images for helping me figure out the names of the poses)
Forget about the craziness, the important thing is that there were some really good waves every so often and you had to be alert and ready.
… Ready to crouch under the lip and get on a nice little barrel, like this guy.
That´s it for today. Come back tomorrow to see another great day of surfing in Nicaragua. Saludos!

Hola primos. The offshore wind was light all morning and the waves were breaking nice and slow. I would call it waist to chest high with great form but the water is still a tad chilly. Check it out!!
