Nicaragua Surf Report for Tuesday, January 08, 2019

Brian Scott

Happy Tuesday friends. If you haven’t guessed it already, the opening shot is a water shot. Jump on in to see the rest of the epic session here!

Brian Scott

Not only was this my first swim for 2019, but it’s my first time back treading water for a while now.

Brian Scott

I figured it was time to get back to being up close and personal with some of my favorite subjects.

Brian Scott

How close is too close… I guess as long as I don’t get run over, I’m good!

Brian Scott

The A N I M A L getting some animal style rights this afternoon.

Brian Scott

I’ve been digging on the color sprays on the kids boards lately. Of course, green is one of my favorite colors, so I’m a little biased.

Brian Scott

There were a good amount of the local kids out ripping and I’d say about an equal other half were the visiting surfers alike.

Brian Scott

As you can see, everyone was having fun.

Brian Scott

With some decent swell in the water that last couple of days,  it’s been called anywhere from pretty fun, to super epic in the afternoons.

Brian Scott

You be the judge?

Brian Scott

Super low front angle from the water with a tail slide combo always looks nice when looking back through the days shots.

Brian Scott

Or even a super close backlit in your face gem like this reminds me why I love swimming with the guys.

Brian Scott

They were pulling off ally-oops…

Brian Scott

Frontside airs…

Brian Scott

Even huge “Super Mans” out there today. Stoked to whitness some of the elite surfing going down during todays session.

Brian Scott

With all kinds of potential for big turns and big sweeping wraps, having Los Perros as a backdrop is just the icing on the cake for this really fun surf break.

Brian Scott

Lesther bout to go Layback Larry on us.

Brian Scott

Although I’m shooting with a 70-200mm lens the closeness is a bit like a facade. The advantage to getting close but out of harms way of some razor sharp fins.

Brian Scott

The same applies to a surfer going the opposite direction from me. I can pick them off way down the line. Matt getting ready to do something huge before I get smashed by the section he just passed a turn or two before this frame.

Brian Scott

As the high tide was starting to peak, the inside bowl was getting a little more funky. Jeison digging in on a sick bottom turn.

Brian Scott

As always, with one of his signature moves, Jeison “Two Chain” busting another sick fins free crack off the top. Alright amigos, hope you were stoked to see some shots mixed up today from the water. SBS is out for the day ~
