Hey surfers of the world, welcome to Thursday’s surf report… the wind died down a lot today but the water was still a little messy.

A lot of the waves were breaking all over the place with several small peaks that disappeared and then reformed further down the line.

It doesn’t matter how deep you think you are, Panga Drops will always surprise you with an outside set.

This girl went for the first wave of the set, it was a good wave but check out the second wave… much better, no?

While the first wave of the set disapeared just like the ride of this surfer, she noticed the second wave behind, and a guy about to take it.

Big-round cutback with a lot of rail work and a big spray. This guy knows the unspoken rule of never catching the first wave of the set.

on the inside there were some smaller waves with better shape, but it’s really hard to stay at the right spot.

There was a lot of paddling but not a lot of surfing… many times the surfers just couldn’t take the waves.

Also many times were a set came without warning and sweeped everyone away from the lineup.

With these conditions there is not much fun in taking photos, I wish I could be in the water instead though but, it’s time to pack and go celebrate with the Birthday Girl and the three dragons. Cheers!

Hey everyone! Welcome to Friday’s surf report from Colorados. It was another small, but fun day of waves. Looks like the last mellow day for a good eight to nine days. Finley managed to find a couple of tubitos.

Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. The surf was still fairly small today. There were moments where it pulsed and moments where it lulled out. Still clean and good for turns.

Hey amigos! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. The small “gap” days are here! Funnily enough there were still some mini-drainers at Colorados this Wednesday morning.

Hey there folks! Happy Tuesday. Today was a day for looking for something other than surf I think? It must have been about 40-50 mph winds out there at times. Lets go see what all these winds were about.

Hola everybody!  Eric here with your Monday surf report from some lovely beach-break in Nicaragua!  What a great round of swell we had the past days!  Looks like it is finally coming to a close as the waves are quite a bit smaller today!  Still some fun ones coming in, check out the action!
