Hi folks, this is Jairo “Come Pan Panic” Ramos bringing you all the action from one of our favorite surf spots near San Juan del Sur.  Today we drove down south to take some fun waves with no crowd.  It was head high to overhead on sets, the winds were offshore and the water was a little bit chilly.  Check out the lineup.


The lineup was totally empty at this spot, there were only four guys out trying to do the best to catch many good waves.  Our very own “Carlitos Calientes” decided to take a break today and made it out to the beach.  Here he is dropping into one of the better sets of the day.

We had tons of lefts and rights breaking all over the place with no takers.  Just image how empty the lineup was that nobody took this sick right that rolled in all the way to the beach.  What a shame!!!

Luis “La Baloy” Chamorro was the only local riper out there this afternoon.  He was giving some extra work to his fins.  Check him out with this sick backside maneuver.


This is my good friend Riley “La Gallina Ponedora” hand dragging on this left.  He was so stoked to surf this spot today because not many people was out there so he took all kind of waves he wanted, including the little ones!!!


There were many killer lefts with no takers as well.  It looks like the surf season is going to start earlier this year because we are getting some really good waves lately.

Here we have an artistic shot by me “Come Pan” showing the reflection we had on the beach today.  We had a perfect day at the beach and hopefully tomorrow we will score many more fun waves.

On the last shot of the day we have this unknown pale rider taking a small but nice looking left.  This swell is supposed to be with us for the whole week so be sure to stay tuned with us.
CP out!!!
