Somewhere in Nicaragua
The wind was quite light this morning, which helped the tubes stay open as they rolled through. Even the adults were able to tuck in on the larger sets as seen here. Nicely done Señor.
The little blonde chica from yesterday morning was back in action again today. We likely had more South in the swell today, given the majority of the better waves were lefts instead of rights. She did well to adapt to the change in swell direction and sharpen her pig-dog skills.
Speaking of pid-dogging… I like how this surfer is tilting his head forward while riding through the tube. I often try to do this on small days in an effort to prevent the lip from clipping my head.
The little chica found one of the only rights of the morning! I could tell that she prefers surfing frontside to surfing backside, so I bet she was appreciative of this rare right runner.
The elemental master showing off his rail game for us spectators as well. Tube, Air, and Rail, the whole shebang. I wonder if he rides for Mayhem or Lost?
That wraps up Saturday morning’s surf action. Thanks for checking in everyone and I hope you’ve still been enjoying the surf action despite the smaller than usual conditions. The weather has been beautiful, so I’ve seen plenty of kids and families out on the beach soaking it all in. Tomorrow should be a bit bigger than today AND I’ll be passing the surf report baton to a new, mystery legend tomorrow. You’ll definitely have to check back in to see his opening report from paradise here in Iguana.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Colorados. I saw the waves turn on and off about 7 separate times today. The conditions were in constant flux. It just so happened to be that the best window of the day was when I took pictures around 1:00pm.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Wednesday’s surf report from Colorados. The waves were better by all measurable metrics today. It was still walled up and slow, but there were definitely some 10 pointers to be had.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday evening’s surf report from Colorados. The swell was bigger and stronger today, but it was very slow between the sets. I think the lack of a secondary swell combined with the sandbars not being in perfect shape made for long waits.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Hello World! Welcome back for another excellent surf report full of great waves and chill vibes. Today is the calm before the storm as we have Hurricane Bonnie just off the Caribbean and looking to make landfall tonight so we are expecting some heavy rains and winds to go along with that.. but today is..
Good morning on this cloud covered Thursday morning, hoping the sun breaks through the clouds at some point here today but regardless the surfers are out and there are waves to be had. It was approaching the high tide when I went down to shoot and there were some fun corners and some runners too…
Hello everyone, this is Baldo with today’s report. As always, I try to mix it up a bit every Wednesday and show you some of the other breaks in the area, we don’t want to bore you with all those Colorado barrels!
