Somewhere in Nicaragua
Happy Sunday Funday amigos!!! Well, today was another day of unfavorable winds. However, although I couldn’t make the super early AM glassy session, I was rolling the dice on the afternoon session. Well, the winds were still poo poo, but the size was for sure much better. Now we just need some surfers!
Lucky for me there were a couple out. Here’s one of them. Mr. Grant, making a sick little turn right to the inside.
See, I wasn’t kidding there were some decent sets. Too bad this thing didn’t open up for Robin and let him drive down the line on this bigger high tide backwash looking gurgler.
Two men leaveth, one man cometh!
Little big man Kai with his best “Watcha talkin’ about Willis face”!!!! Spot on if you ask me.
Being that it’s pretty mellow with the surf right now, Ty opted for the shorty fish soft top.
Make no mistake, I have one of these boards too and and as fun as they may look, they’re super freaking hard to surf on. Ty going for the giant floater! At least you have a Soft “Top” landing buddy! Jajaja
Kenny Loggins…. errrr naaaaa. Maybe better Kenny “Logger” Rogers. Ok, I was trying to find a fun cool name for my amigo Kenny who was actually out there ripping these fun waves at the reef.
All nicknames aside, he wasn’t kidding around when he was looking for a barrel out there!
Yaaaa Papa Nam, just finishing up work and ready for some salty waves!!
He’s not wasting any time. Jump in and wash off all your land stress hermano!!
Ahhhh the best baptism of all religions.
I’m not sure if Grants even a religious man, but….
His bottom turns make me feel spiritual. 🙂
His turns even make me see the holy ghost! Sick style…. almost skate-esque feeling brother!
Referring to skate moves, check out Ty’s sick kick-flip he just about made with that high tide bounce back.
Ohhhhhhhh speaking of skating…… well, what do we have HERE you might ask?????????? I was rushing to get over to link up with a few of my buddies tonight who were doing their thing (their thing refers to what they like to do when the surf’s flat, onshore, or just not that good around these parts – they like to take to the pavement and grind out some sick skate park sessions, one of the most influential things to modern surfing), Hope you ENJOY!!Here’s one of the three amigos, Jose Andres killing it with a frontside nose-slide, on the homemade BOX.
Devon, another good friend of mine who you will usually see on most of the surf reports, getting his Back K-grind on well after the sun quit working for the waves.
Actually Devon (previous photo) and Mr. Dario here are two of the dedicated hombres that helped create this little special concrete park for all to come and share and enjoy. How sick in Darios Back-smith Grind on this one with lens flare?!?!?
Jose Andres is actually one Rivas’s most prolific skaters, here. Tonight was my first time shooting with him, but after seeing moves like this fakie front big spin, I am amping until the next time we get to link up and shoot again!
Dario going with a HUGE Boneless grab!!!! And Yup he stuck it too!!
Damn Devon, I didn’t even know you had such steeze and flare with your skating. Sick heel flip!
I wish there were a way to give you guys a perspective of how incredibly hot it is here at the school skate park. These guys were skating for a couple of hours before I showed up. I literally busted out my gear and shot for just barely 30 min’s and I was drenched in sweat.Check out all the sweet beads coming off of Devon…. This sh!t beats Hot Yoga anytime!! Haha
Jose Andres, practicing Safe Skating with his face mask on this super sick feeble fakie.

RECENT REPORTS
Happy Sunday Funday, it’s been playful waves up and down the beach today. @tonyzphotos reporting.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Saturday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. There was a window early today and right at sunset. At mid-day when I took pictures the wind kicked up making for better turn sections than tubes. Still a few if you knew where to look.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Friday’s surf report from Colorados! The swell wasn’t quite as big as I expected, but there were still some gems this morning as you can see.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Happy Friday ya’ll! Well, somewhere it’s happy and sunshiny. Although here we’re always happy, however, the sunshine needs to come back and soon!
Howdy surf fans! Well, I have some fantastic news. Today we were graced with some much needed cleaned up conditions out there in the ol’ ocean. After a pretty long stint of pretty horrible conditions, the winds were finally calm and the water was just as tranquilo. Check it out!
Hello everybody and congrats on making it halfway through the week! This is Hotstick Hannahs signing in with some morning shots. Check them out amigos!
