Nicaragua Surf Report for Saturday, July 13, 2024

Josh S

Hi everyone! Welcome to Saturday’s surf report from Colorados. The waves were the smallest we’ve had in probably a month, but it was still super clean.

Josh S

There was one trio (a father and two sons I believe) of surfers out. However, this little guy in the black and blue top stole and owned the spotlight today.

The little dude was short, light, and springy. The perfect combo for today’s small low-tide waves.

I don’t know how old he is, but I was very impressed with his timing and decisions regarding his lines and maneuvers on the waves.

Josh S

I don’t think a single set slipped underneath this little man’s radar. No section was safe from getting smacked.

Lift-off and rotate time!

Josh S

Ready for the elevator drop little man? Haha

Pops (presumably) working some stylish s-pumps in on this crispy clean racer.

See the section and line then…

Attack!

To close the report I want to showcase a high-quality roundhouse from the little dude.

Josh S

This is what good mechanics look like. Got his heel-side rail engaged just right while compressed and with a little back foot pressure. His line of sight and trailing arm are set too. But pay special attention to how he has dropped his lead hand to use as a pivot point. Perfect method of preparing to rotate through a roundhouse cutback.

Josh S

To complete the move he simply drove his line of sight, shoulders and hips through the turn to catch up to his open and set lead hand.

The waves were small, but it was a beautiful day on the beach by all other metrics! Enjoy the weather and Mr. Tony Z returns tomorrow to bring us some more small wave action.
