Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hey there, welcome to todays surf report. We had some fun waist to head high surf with a mild crowd in the late morning to early mid day. Check it!
Maybe there were a few over head sets, but what’s a few feet right?
Not too big, but glassy as heck, as this panga (top right) makes it’s way to one of the best places to surf today.
If you stay here, you don’t have to come by boat, which saves on money. Also, this way you can get a mini work out when you lightly jog your way to the beach. It’s a win win.
Although, I might have kicked my jog into a slight sprint after I saw this as I got down towards the playa.
The real “baller” way to do it, is to stay here and have a jet ski to go check out all the other surf spots. Megan and Mike…. some of the coolest “baller” philanthropists I know.
All eyes on this guy…. makes his wave feel all that much cooler!
Oh, that feeling of trust in your quiver, especially your fins for the drive you need on this race track and the complete optimism that you’re going to 100% make this wave.
The USA has Paul Mitchell. Nicaragua has Papagayo; this hair product is all natural, safe for the enironment and free!
Whoever came up with the name “Fun-board”, sure hit the nail on the head.
Ok, without scrolling ahead, which do you think is about to happen next:A. Barrel to air section.B. Barrel to big fat cutback.C. Skip the barrel and straight to a big fat air section.ORD. kick out and wait for the next bigger set wave.*********
If you chose B, you are a wizard mind surfer…
and your fantasy surf team is probably spot on!
Peter loves to surf. Peter also loves his barrels ribbed… for his pleasure!
Who’s behind curtain number 1 Monty?
aaaaaaand who’s behind curtain number 2?
Looks like we’ll go with curtain number 3!
Ok, so lets talk about the elephant in the room, or in this case the elephant on the surf report today. For the record… drop knee is really only a step (or two) closer to real surfing. So don’t get your panties in a wad.
Secondly, body boarders do in fact get a way better view of any barrels than their stand-up brothers get.
Thirdly, fourthly and fifthly, the boards are half the price, excessive baggage isn’t excessive for travel costs with a boogie and you 99.9% for sure will never, ever have to deal with a broken board OR head for that matter. Love what you ride, ride what you love! The stoke is all the same. I’m glad we got that all sorted out.
Look at that peak!
Look at that set of peaks on that peak. Waves are so uniquely weird!
Snap, Crackle, POP!!! BOOM, looks like someone broke up then 4th of July fireworks pack a little early!!!!!
Well, we’ve reached the end of todays surf report. I’m off for the day tomorrow, but will be on a boat at one of the best point breaks in all of Nicaragua, so wish me luck! Hope you and your loved ones have a safe and fantastic 4th mañana, wherever you’ll be celebrating. Feliz antes del cuatro de julio!!! ~
RECENT REPORTS
Happy 4th of July! The size of the surf dropped notably today. There were still good sets, but patience was key (again). Hard to believe there were no takers on this one!
Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. I saw some of the biggest sets of the year today. There were epic moments, but it was still a bit slow between the high quality waves.
Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for a few days. The swell today is the largest it has been in about two weeks. It was still slow between the sets, but there were a few one hour windows and pulses.

First peak was a great spot to be, at the beginning when the tide was still kind of low it was small with A-frame peaks.
