Somewhere in Nicaragua
Happy Monday and the start of a new week amigos! First things first…. todays waves were going OFF!!! I mean really going off!!! Second, this might be the best waves we see for a while as there is supposed to be some interesting tropical storm action heading our way the next few days. I’ve heard its been downgraded, which would be great for everyone, but needless to say, I’m super stoked I was able to get as much shooting as I could in today, because like I said… IT WAS FIRING!!!
The mid-tide going out today was groomed with some what looked like end of the road rain, at least for today. But the conditions cleaned up and the sand bars were showing their magic in true PC form.
People coming out of the wood work to see what was going on.
Well, if you were making your way down the this beach, this is exactly what you saw!
And lots of it!!
Chocoyo isn’t a one hit wonder. He surfs well under and above the lip!
All eyes are always on Oscar whenever he surfs.
Because he surfs really good!
Chris in his element…
ALL DAY LONG TODAY!!!
If I had to give you an ideal average of the size out there today… well here you go. John is a great stand in for my measuring guide. Thank you John!!!
So, much like the day before yesterday, it was another marathon of surf sessions. I had to quickly run home to offload my morning shots so I could come back and shoot throughout the afternoon on the tide coming back up.
Here’s how it looked in the afternoon on the tide coming back up. Jayson on a seriously sick drainer. The sequence is pretty mental too. Disappeared for a good amount of time under that thick lip then got ridiculously spat out; and he got a bunch more like this before the sun went down. Like I said… firing!
Erin Brooks was slaying her own set of barrels out there today. Go Chica!!!!!
It’s safe to say that all angles were covered out there today.
Here’s Jayson again on another one just moments after that last one.
Maycol pulled into an even bigger gnarlier one than this, I would have put it up, but it got snowballed by another surfer scrambling to make it out of the way so the closeout didn’t quite do it justice. We’ll just say, his barrel prowess definitely went up a few notches today!
Both Men and WOMEN were out there getting shacked out of their minds today. Rachel pulling into a sick little green machine runner!
JJ (Rachel’s SO) got so many barrels, airs and sick turns today it was like he was putting on a clinic, sponsored by Casa Calala. I’m pretty bummed they’re already going home tomorrow.
Shoots, all my homies are leaving. Ricky on maybe his 4th or maybe 10th to last wave of the day. All I know is he surfed until dark, since him and Will are heading to MGA tonight….. safe travels amigos!
What was really really crazy tonight, was the sun came down past the clouds and finally hit a tiny little break just before the horizon line over past Los Perros and completely lit up the whole side of Giants Foot and all the surrounding freshly filled in green hillsides, for all of about 5-10min.
Within that time, I had to adjust my lighting settings quickly as it went from slightly overcast to super light beam from the heavens, it seemed so bight!
Well, I guess my description doesn’t really do it justice, so here’s one of the two waves I captured in that short amount of time. Colin, blindly going where all men wish they could go! Straight into the light!
Annnnnd my parting surf shot of the day and craziest light I’ve even seen shining into an afternoon barrel. Mr. Carlos Perez… aka Carlos de Colorados, couldn’t have been a more prefect surfer on this one wave when the light hit it just like it did.
Ohhhh and of course, with that light came one of the most spectacular sunsets as well. I hope you enjoyed todays surf shots. Its was a pretty magical day out there!!! I’m tired and now I can go to sleep!
