Somewhere in Nicaragua
Man, it’s a shame the wind switched because we have a little swell in the water. The waves are about chest high with mush burger sections perfect for airs! The Ripzone crew was on the beach modeling so we had a surf with the locals. We waited ‘til the afternoon to surf, and the ripzone crew caught it before the wind switched! Early bird gets the worm!
We wanted to start you off with Darwin “El Brujo” cranking a good cutback on a rare right. This guy was scratching for waves all over the peak and getting a bunch.
Who’s that Nica kid? Ohh wait, that’s just Mateo “Guineo” busting out of this solid section. Feels like your right at home, huh Mateo?
Man! The pictures make it look a lot better than it was! Jairo, stop taking such good pictures! Here’s Juilo busting a solid cutback on the shoulder.
The onshore wind pushes the board back under your feet. So the local kids see it as the perfect opportunity to start trying new airs. Here’s Darwin ”El Brujo” trying a rodeo flip, even catching the fisherman’s attention.
There was a bunch of hand line fisherman on the beach. It’s crazy they can reel in a nice jack with their hands! I can barely do it with a fishing pole
We wanted to leave you with one of the younger locals on a fun looking wave. Where was I when this one came in? I need everyone to cross their fingers for the wind tomorrow! The NSR crew is gonna try to wake up early and catch it before it switches. Buenas noches, we’ll see you out there tomorrow!
RECENT REPORTS
Hey everyone! Welcome to Sunday evening’s surf report from French Fries. The surf was smaller today, but it was cleaner and hitting the sandbar better. So better waves than yesterday even though it was smaller.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Saturday evening’s surf report from Panga Drops / French Fries. The wind was light, there was still some size, but it was jumbled up out there.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Friday evening’s surf report from Colorados. The size and consistency actually declined today, contrary to what was forecasted. There were still a few corners to be had though. The wind was also light this evening.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Welcome to the Wednesday surf report. This is Roberto “Lucha Libre” and Mateo “Pledge” bringing you the action from today. Unfortunately the Reef was not breaking, but we still ad fun at a super good beach break. The waves there were running overhead with offshore wind. Check it out!
A day after the contest, i got back to San Juan del Sur and headed out to Maderas. It’s head high to overhead on sets and the wind was offshore in the morning. Check it out.
Well, we have a pumping swell out here today and it seems like the weather pattern is finally starting to change. It’s double overhead on sets and the winds were light onshore. We went out to the NSR Beach House and caught some fun ones. Check it out.
