Somewhere in Nicaragua
HAPPY TGIF everyone! I had a nice little trip out of the country for a few days, so it’s good to be back, checking out our local waves once again. Here’s what we had for today.
Starting things and the weekend off right, like my two amigos here, Marcos and his wife Alex. Hola amigos!!!
Things were looking pretty good out there, wave wise and crowd wise.
Colin charging the high tide beach break with his single fin.
Dah Birds….
Dah Boyz!!
Oliver “Animal” Soliz was one of the few people out there this afternoon.
So was his compañero Conin. I was really surprised I didn’t see too many other people out there.
One lonely, leash-less, single fin about to get gobbled up by the shore pound.
El Padrino of surfing here in Nicaragua, Señor Tom Eberly was out too. Here he is styling on his backhand on a really nice right.
I’m not exactly sure how Oliver got the moniker of “Animaaaal” but I’m sure it had to have something to do with his surfing.
Flying down the line on his trusty twin fin.
Getting shacked on this inevitable closeout…
To stylishly performing this perfect, doggy door exit.
The only other person I saw out at this time was another amigo of mine.
Moritz has been visiting from Costa Rica for the last couple of weeks.
His style obviously shows he knows these Latin American waves very well.
This sequence is just a small fraction of what his barrel riding skills are like.
But none-the-less, impressive.
Nice one Hermano!!!
Looking back over at Oliver, getting a Nice Nica version of the Root-Beer-Float!
Things were starting to wind down a little here, maybe too much water.
The “Animal” is always stoked beyond stoked!!
I figured since all my surfing talent was getting out of the water, I might as well go and join them up the beach at the reef!
It was definitely a lot more windy.
aaaaand a bit more size as well.
Lucky for me there was one more extra person to shoot too!
“Ahhhh, surf looks good huh Vince…. plenty of haole surfers but we will blow them away brah…” haha
Well, actually the surf does look pretty good!
Colin making this wave look….
Way too easy!
I mean, WAY TOO EASY!!
When’s the last time you cracked the lip like this on your single fin??
Meanwhile out the back, people were dodging some pretty fun sized outsiders.
THEEEEE “ANIMAAAAALLL” with this BEAST turn! RAAAARRR!!
