Somewhere in Nicaragua
Ok, we’ve got another little bump in the swell for the last day of January. It’s running about chest high on sets and the wind is offshore. Check it out!
OK, this kind of stuff gets us super stoked. This is Danny. He’s one of the hardest working guys in San Juan Del Sur who just loves to surf. The problem was that he works construction 6 days a week and didn’t have a surfboard. He would have to borrow an old beater just to get wet. Even so, he’s got a great attitude and one of those infectious smiles – just the nicest guy in the world. A couple of months ago, NSR pooled some resources and got him his own surfboard. At the time, he could barely stand up. Well, check him out now – going down the line. Danny, you are the man!
This is a shot of the Bad Boy, Gerardo, ripping up a small one.
Here is a nice shot of Coki. Is that an air? I can’t tell…hmmm
And this picture is really disturbing. I spend a lot of time diving around here and I feel like I know my way around these reefs. I’ve spent a fair bit of time looking for Lobster and not once have I even seen one. Obviously I’ve been looking in the wrong places. Check these guys out – bags full of Langosta! It’s been a great January, check back soon.
RECENT REPORTS
Happy 4th of July! The size of the surf dropped notably today. There were still good sets, but patience was key (again). Hard to believe there were no takers on this one!
Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. I saw some of the biggest sets of the year today. There were epic moments, but it was still a bit slow between the high quality waves.
Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for a few days. The swell today is the largest it has been in about two weeks. It was still slow between the sets, but there were a few one hour windows and pulses.
