Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hi everyone, this is Miguel bringing you all the action for this Monday surf report. It’s a new week and a brand new ball game down here in Nicaragua. After a stint of bad weather, it looks like we are finally back to normal and have our all-day offshores again! Needless to say, we were super stoked and headed out to take advantage of the lingering swell. It was running about shoulder high with slightly bigger sets, the water was nice and warm and full of sea life. To top it off, we got Chewy (our NSR Intern) back! He arrived last night and claims to be lucky. We aren’t arguing with that. Check it out.
Today we are going to start our daily surf report with this girl, she was the only girl that we caught in the lineup trying to catch some waves. This is Cherry riding on this little nugget.
There were some good rippers destroying every single wave they caught out there. On this shot we have “Pancho Sanchez” he was ripping all over the place. Look at him about to throw the lip of this little wave.
The lineup was not very busy at all, we only had about 6 or 9 guys including a few locals in the water trying to catch some really nice waves. Here we have Oliver “El Monito” Solis destroying the lip of this closed session.
A few locals jumped out in the water and were charging as always. This is Luis “La Baloy” Chamorro doing his thing on this little nugget. He got drained on a few big airs today. Check him out looking good on one of the many airs he got today.
As usual, we had some beginners out there trying to learn how to surf. Hey guy, next time give the NSR Surf School a call and we’ll teach you how to stand up! Ha, just kidding man. You were doing great out there today.
Our good friend “Beer” showed up later in the afternoon and was getting vertical on his backside smacks. Love to see it Randy!
Luis always picks off the best waves. He’s been surfing these waves longer than anybody. Here he goes on a sick little right hander…and yes, he made it out.
Man, were we happy the offshore winds came back today. Look how buttery this thing is!
Yeah, Chewy is back and he was going for it today. It won’t be long until he’s back in form. Until then, wipeout shots RULE!
Alright folks, that’s all for today. We are surfed out and are going back to the house to feast on Chewy Burgers. Things are looking good for the next several days with a new swell arriving somewhere around Wed or so. Be sure to check back with us. Oh yeah, I almost forgot – WELCOME BACK CHEWY! (looking good in the matching NSR Jersey’s by the way!)

FROM THE ARCHIVES
As you can see in this shot people were getting stung by the jellyfish. This guy got a bad sting on the neck and got out of the water. Dude, hope you feel better.
Hi everybody, I am Jairo “Come Pan” with the weekend surf report. Today I headed out to another spot around town to get some good shots with a couple of locals. It’s overhead on sets, the wind is offshore, the water is warm, and the weather conditions were a little overcast. Check it out.
The swell dropped down a bit but there are still some rideable waves out here. It’s chest to shoulder high on sets and the Vrginia crew is still paddling out for the rest of the week. Here is a shot of the Virginia crew having fun on vacations down here in Nicaragua.
