Hey hey.  Welcome to another daily report right from the Pacific coast of Nicaragua.  The waves were great today, the winds were super light and the ocean was calm as glass.  The crowd was thick in the early hours of the morning but thinned out plenty by the afternoon.  Plenty of waves coming through regardless.  Check it!

This guy dropped in completely under the lip.  He was getting barreled before he hit his feet!

We had a heavy rain last night, leading to some brown water today.  This unknown surfer pulled into a thick chocolate milk tube!

Though there were both rights and lefts today, the rights seemed to be more dominant.  Ripper man smacking the top off of this one!

This guy found himself a little spot where the water still looked clean.  Setting up for the tube section in front of him!  As you can see, there were some good sized sets thumping on this sandbar today.

All this board needed was someone to stand on it!  Nice hollow section!

Soooo many right hand tubes coming through.  It was a regular-footers dream today.  This kid pulled into some good shacks!

On the end section of this wave, instead of pulling out, this man floated the last section.  He did a big air drop and landed it clean.  yewwwwww!

Hey everyone! Welcome to Wednesday’s surf report from Colorados. The waves were better by all measurable metrics today. It was still walled up and slow, but there were definitely some 10 pointers to be had.

Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday evening’s surf report from Colorados. The swell was bigger and stronger today, but it was very slow between the sets. I think the lack of a secondary swell combined with the sandbars not being in perfect shape made for long waits.
