Somewhere in Nicaragua
Happy Sunday Funday and to all my friends, families and NSR following surfing homies from the USA, Happy 4th of July!!! Today everyone here woke to the sound of some of the gnarliest of storms I think we may have had yet this season…. well at least for the lighting and thunder that was pretty abrupt at 6am. I think one touched down right outside my bedroom window this morning is was so freaking LOUD!!! Well, with that said, it was certainly going to be a waiting game to shoot anything this morning; at least until the storm let up. Which eventually it did. Step on in to see how todays surf looked, that is if you aren’t outside in the E.E.U.U shooting off some fireworks right now!
So with the storm it brought or rather left some mixed up surf, but there was definitely some size and juice out there to play in.
The sun came out eventually too and it was actually looking really great, at least for photos.
But we all know this place has seen it’s better days here when I’ve shot this same angle with perfect aqua blue cylinder tubes roping in.
Still though, the surfing presence here is strong and onshore waves weren’t going to slow anyone surfing out there today down one bit.
Need I say more? Super sick turn!!!
Everyone out there was murdering the waves. Like it was some kind of Holiday or something? haha
Flaring every maneuver out with style and pizzazz!
Fin topping off nicely on this southern peak showing how much he’s improving day by day here in Nica-Land.
The surf check was being watched by many along the edge of the lush green jungle, who seemed a little apprehensive…
But seeing people out doing this to the waves, might have been the deal maker for some.
And this was the guaranteed deal breaker for me as I knew it was time to wrap up my last few shots before it possibly started to rain again.
When I finally made my way back under the safety of the Beach Club palapas, I was able to get this rad little sequence of this little dude putting on a nice little show for all the viewers from the BC all the way down the beach.
The kid put a full combo of tricks together on that last wave, I’d give him a solid 10!
Until the next sesh….. right? Be safe out there if you’re out there celebrating and if not, have a Great rest of your Sunday form wherever you’re reading this right now. I’ll see you all again tomorrow.

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.
