Somewhere in Nicaragua

Nothing like getting drained out to help finish off another good weekend like this!

And this is the best seat in the house!

Or you could also be chipping onto a green that overlooks our iconic beach here.. choose your perspective of choice.

This guy’s sitting comfortable in this Jay-Bay like Left of of a Nica wave. BTW have you been following the WSL contests? How’s your fantasy team doing so far this season?

Rick is an amazing person with a WHOLE lot of passion for life, love and surfing. If you’re ever fortunate to get a chance to sit and talk with this guy… you’re in for a lot of good stories and some pretty incredible inspirational life cliff’s notes.

Meanwhile, this was the scenic view for all of us who hesitated on whether the tide was doing good for us or not. I’m gonna go with You should have been out there!

As the afternoon progressed, people started to come in droves as they soon realized that the surf was getting better. Some even had growths on their backs; as the grom invasion has been like something from a Gremlins movie!

This stylish “Rock-n-Roll” floater” from my friend Mikey, wasn’t only a cautionary avoidance of this micro-grom dropping in on him by purpose, but also because he’s a good father who understands that he could potentially be dismembering the young lad. You always gotta look both ways young grass hopper!

My friend Derek here shows how this wave is supposed to be ridden, superbly.

And my buddy Louie going “beast” mode on this little wave. I’m so fired up to see you go berserk on this next swell buddy!

Well I wonder what they’re looking at?

Ohh, I see Colorados collects on another taxing. Be it big or small, this place has no mercy for fiber glass. She’s gotta eat too!

This is the face of adversity and acceptance. Some people punch their boards when they break (not a pretty scene of behavior, really ever) and some people accept the reality of it; by being grateful for being able to surf all together, no matter the outcome. I, for one, am for the latter!

Speaking of being grateful. Here’s your chance to help donate to a really good cause… & eat some really good pizza while doing so. Time is a ticking for the last call for this event, so don’t hesitate. If you’re local and can come by, here’s the details, and if you’re not, its not too late to enter to win this epic prize!

Mi amiga Mindie was out there going for broke this afternoon. Stoked to get some shots of you out there this arvo amiga!

This shot completely stokes me out, for what might be a really good morning of rights tomorrow.

There were quite a few muchacha’s out there tonight ripping.

As well as mucho otro gente who were doing this all afternoon.

The shredding of course was at an all time high, since the wave size is in the playful zone currently.

Barrels, like this one being threaded by my buddy Ryley shows he’s merely warming up for our next big swell.

And this unidentified surfer. If you like barrels, Nicaragua is the place to be!

Case in point #3.

and when surfers see this happening… this is what you will see. People running to GO get some!!! Well that’s my weekend report mi amigos! I hope you enjoyed the events. Get ready for a good week and definitely some good swell in store coming up. Look forward to linking up with you all later this week. Stay tuned for tomorrows activities brought to U by Baldo my brother from another mother. Peace out! B ~
