Somewhere in Nicaragua
We are going to make one last comment on this and then we are going to put the issue to rest and move on. We have received a ridiculous amount of emails regarding yesterday’s post, nearly all of them supporting NSR – Thanks! We appreciate it. We would also like quell any notion that there is a bad vibe here or in Rancho Santana. The vibe here has always been very mellow and positive and we don’t intend to let one bad apple spoil it for the rest of us. We would also like to point out, as it was pointed out to us numerous times, that Chris Allaman does not represent the voice of Rancho Santana and the sentiment expressed in his email is from him individually. OK. Moving on. We had some fun, head high waves today and offshore winds all day. We took more pictures than we know what to do with, so we’re going to put them all up!
We want to give some shoutouts to our friends from CA. Here’s Marcus from SF…
Here is Alexis, who was thoughtful enough to bring down a bunch of medical supplies for the local clinic. He even brought a wheelchair! You the man Alexis.
And Ron, even though you were ripping, we have to call you out on the backside style my friend!
This is Miner, a local from Limon. You’ll meet him if you surf the Santana Beach Break.
…and Ollie, our friend from Denmark who is building the very first Golf Condo’s here in Nicaragua.
We had a crew in from Sebastian, FL who said they checked NSR! That’s enough to get your picture up. This is Dad.
And here is one of the young groms from Sebastian, appreciating the waves.
And I had to put this one up…
We’ve got a fading swell for tomorrow and then conflicting reports for more waves heading into Thurs. or Fri., depending where you look. Stay tuned.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Friday evening’s surf report from Panga Drops. The swell was still pretty solid today with plenty of larger sets hitting the middle-peak at low-tide and mid-tide.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday evening’s surf report from Panga Drops. The swell height and interval were both notably higher today. So much so that most of the action was at the middle-peak, with less happening at the sandbars. Asher with a stylish entry on an outside right bomb.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Wednesday’s surf report from French Fries. The wind was very strong, but the sets were good!
