Somewhere in Nicaragua
White sand beach, left point break, head high swell, offshore winds, one guy out…hmmmm. Not a bad Birthday present if you ask me.
After a while, a few others paddled out. I guess it looked too fun to pass up. This is Lars, skipping the World Cup in his home country to make some turns in Nicaragua.
“Hey, somebody told me it could be dangerous to walk this close to the edge of the reef” “Nah, what could happen to us, we’re plenty safe up here”
This is Lars’ good buddy Von Schtickem (I hope we got the spelling right on that one). I think you are the first German surfers we’ve ever met here. Enjoy your trip – you made it on NSR!
RECENT REPORTS
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.
Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for a few days. The swell picked up quickly this Thursday at Colorados! A few tubes are back in the cards!
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Yes! The offshores have returned. It’s been a crazy year for the weather here, but today was back to normal – offshore all day long. We’ve got solid overhead+ swell running today. Check out this nice right hander – it’s bigger than it looks.
