Somewhere in Nicaragua
Happy Monday folks! Who’s ready for a new week of happy surfing and waves? I’m hoping we can bring you a much needed dose of cyber vitamin D and maybe some salt water hydrotherapy via our surf imagery. Click that read more button if that’s ok with you!
BIG Scott saying…. “HEY EVERYBODY” from a very obvious safe and social distance, but with a heartfelt smile that says, I think we all know we’ve got each others back right now!
You know who’s got some back…, maybe some baby back ribs, or maybe some seriously sick backside hack attack-age??? Kevin Cortez, that’s who!!! Go a head, you try and throw some buckets this size and get right back to me.
The afternoon sessions have been looking the best, as of lately. Of course this all can change from day to day or month to month. It’s all pretty much determined by mother nature.
Has been as long as I’ve been living here.
Looks like the red tide might be coming to an end, hopefully? I guess we’ll see once the water temps get back to normal. Until then, I know Koji’s cutbacks won’t be anything normal if he keeps killing it out there!
Where’s Waldo? Or in this case where’s Yani? Or better yet, he’s wondering where’s Brian??? Sooooo super psyched to see (from a very long distance) that my long lost brother Yani has returned from Israel. Let’s catch up soon brother, once this quarantine thing is over!
How’s your nose riding been going? Here’s how it’s been going down here.
It’s almost nostalgic seeing people surfing right now (at least on the inner webs). Who would have ever thought surfing would be reduced to a 15 year long surf report for getting your surfing fix?
Lucky we are…. ABSOLUTELY!!! But make no mistake, we’re as diligent about safety as John is about getting his 12 o’clock spot on!
Nicaragua is an amazing and beautiful place. The most famous people to hail from this country (aside from maybe some professional baseball players) would be the wave sliding club. Believe me when I say, Nicaragua has some of the best surfers in the world. Then again, we have some of the best waves on the planet!
Coming through? Going down? Can I order a ham sandwich while I hang ten on this wave…. I think all the above statements would work for this image.
Have you ever heard that surfing is pretty much like the fountain of youth???
Trust me when I say…. believe the hype!
We take our instagram posting very serious here! But then again we have some of most epic sunsets on the planet!
If this water is ever gonna go back to normal again… there’s only one person who can fix that. HOT CARL!!!
Don’t be fooled into thinking we’re only a surfers paradise. Body surfers can froth just as hard here too!
We’ve even got a lil’ bit of soul to add to the Latin flavor mix.
Never too late for a behind the scenes or in this case curtain call.
I pride myself in bringing you such average surf photos that I can photoshop into making you think this place is way better than it really is. This wave was actually only 1-2 feet at best. Carl is super pasty white (not as tan as he looks in this image) and his cutback was copy and pasted from another shot from another day.
Rutci, the only gal out tonight. I think this place just went back 10-15 years in women’s surfing history for Nicaragua.
Cesar aka “Stop’n’Go” groceris, has one of the only few “Essential” markets open here without having to run to Rivas to for your essential goods. Hats off to all the people the world over providing us all with food, drinks and necessities while we all try to stay put.
This comment won’t make much sense to most of you, unless you’re here a lot or know the man himself, at least while he was here; but Gavin Potter @gavstar_308 would certainly approve of this goofy footed slash-back from Carl Caliente!!
What your stoke level should look like when you ride your surfboard all the way into the sand… every time!
SOOO Who’s ready for Tuesday??? I know we are! Thanks for always keeping up with us as your digital connection for your favorite Central American surf report. I’ll be down there again tomorrow. If you’re down there, I’ll keep an eye out for you! Dale pues ~
