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 Sunday, This morning I went straight to Panga drops expecting smaller surf but was surprised with more swell than anticipated. @tonyzphotos reporting.
Hey amigos! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days! Here is Wednesday morning’s action from Colorados. The surf gradually filled in through the day, but the sets were inconsistent and randomly sprinkled throughout the day.
Hello Tuesday, The new swell is starting to fill in and we have some fun wave. @tonyzphotos reporting.
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.
