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
Hello and Happy Monday, the weather system has arrived. We have some big surf and strong winds ripping through the area. @tonyzphots reporting.
Hello and Happy Sunday funday, We have some fun surf running and the winds are swirling around. @tonyzphotos reporting.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Saturday’s mid-afternoon surf report from Colorados. The wind came onshore mid-morning, but after a rain shower we lucked out with some still wind. It wasn’t very consistent, but the sets were sick when they came through. Look how thick the lips were on the sets / double-ups!
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.
