Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hey there everybody! Looks like that swell we’ve been waiting for has come in. We had some nice warm weather and some pretty stiff offshores to go with these nice new arrival of waves… so without further ado, lets get to the goods!
This was from much earlier in the day… but apparently the surf was getting pretty good down at the beach break as the day progressed with the new swell. Not promising anything, but tomorrow might be really fun down that way??
Some people hold church in a structure. Ocean people hold their place of worship at the playa. That or this is a serious game of beach soccer?
You want to know what it looks like when we have 2 weeks of really small surf and we finally get some good swell. This is it!
Ahhhh…. the broken chain of smallness never felt better.
I personally like to show a comparison of the waves with some perspective. Does this do the trick?
Earlier I mentioned the offshores were on fire today. Again… think perspective.
Oh yeahhhhh, Eddie went today. Seriously he did go! Hey there to you too amigo.
This isn’t Eddy, but he still went!
A lot of people have come to surf this particular wave… but only a select few have it really dialed in, Gregg, here, happens to be one of those people.
Sitting in position for this wave can be your best friend.
Or your worst enemy.
Hence leaving you with a love-hate relationship with this break.
But when you get it good…
You can have some of the best sessions of your life.
Especially if you can navigate the inside bowl.
A close out, yes. But still nice to look at… you bet!!
Cesar cracking one at 11 o’clock at 4:20. Go ahead and do the math.
How much you wanna bet those guys sitting on the inside shoulder are placing personal bets in their heads on whether this guys’ gonna make it. He did.
Really… what are the odds??
Leah, longtime Panga’s surfer and all around super cool amiga! Smiles for miles.
Sometimes the ocean beats the swiffer. That’s just how it goes from time to time.
Sometimes I get a surfer looking right into my eyes. Do I feel special? from time to time.
Cesar getting one last wave in before it’s back to the shop. This guy’s a working, surfing, volleyballing, poker card slinging machine; but make no doubts about it, he’s one of the nicest dudes around!
They say things always come in sets of Three. Right?
So you went to the gym today, did you? How’d that go?
You remember when you used to tell your grade-school teacher about how the dog ate your homework? Well how the hell do you explain this one to your wife when you need to buy a new surfboard? I guess all those lies to Mrs. Davis paid off after all. haha
It’s always Five O’Clock Somewhere. This is what it looked like here in Nicaragua.
Here’s the sun burning off some of those offshore winds before it sets for it’s last call.
Evening sessions here are some of the best on the planet. I’m not exaggerating!
My very fine, case in point.
Eugenia and Heather saying Muchas Gracias for stopping by for this fantastic weekend and hope to see you all back here again this week for some surf report goodness that we’re known for brining you on the reg. Enjoy your week my friends. Dale pues ~
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. This lady either ended up a bit later than anticipated or misunderstood what it means to get barreled haha! I’ve got to give her credit for looking at this wave though. You don’t know if you don’t go (or at least look at going).
Hey amigos! Josh here behind the lens for the foreseeable future. Today’s report is coming from Panga Drops. The waves were pretty small again today, but just big enough for a few people to rip.
Happy Sunday everyone, Thanks for tuning. We had another fun morning of waves at the reef. @tonyzphotos bringing you todays action.
