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 amigos! Welcome to Thursday evening’s surf report from Colorados. The swell was even bigger today. Still slow between the sets, but definitely some keepers to be had.
Hey everyone! Welcome to a special surf report from Colorados! It was hard for me to believe it, but there were some good waves at Colorados this Wednesday evening. Yuji enjoying the best tunnel vision he’s had in all of 2026.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday evening’s surf report from Panga Drops. The swell came up some today, but the wind was vicious and ripping all day until sunset. Kai found some of the better waves this evening.
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.
