Somewhere in Nicaragua
Happy hump day folks! We had some XS surf out there, but with it came with some nice clean conditions and hardly a single person out the entire day.
This is the smallest I’ve seen from December to now. BUT…. it’s not flat if there’s even an inkling of something to ride out there. So I still can’t call it FLAT!
Like, look at this wave here… I know people in Southern California who would be frothing on surfing a wave like this anytime.
But the reality is…. around here, people always go find other things to do when it’s 1-2 foot.
The good news is there’s a fun little new swell on the way. Should be here around the 12th or 13th.
Until then, this young lady has the completely right idea with board choice.
Here’s what “Flat” Perfection looks like coming from 210 SSW @ 11 seconds.
Here’s what Danai looks like on the same kind of wave.
Here’s the other swell that was in the water coming from 285 WNW @ 15 seconds. Too bad it’s also the one that got away!
Todays tide brought to you by this 95% Full Waxing Gibbous space nugget.
Why go left when you can go go RIGHT? Even though it’s not actually correct? Because this kid really wanted to get barreled, that’s why!
RECENT REPORTS
Howdy everyone! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The waves surprised to the upside today. It was slightly larger than I was expecting, and there were hour plus long windows where the wind dropped out.
Hola amigos! Welcome to Wednesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The tide was a bit lower by the time I got around to shooting today, so there was more action at mid-peak than the side-peaks. The wind was stronger today, but it was a little bigger today too.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops, once again we’re talking French Fries. The waves were smaller today, but the shape was arguably slightly better than yesterday. The wind was also a touch lighter.
