Somewhere in Nicaragua
We’ve got chest high waves with some head high sets and offshore winds all day today at Maderas. I can’t believe we get bummed when the waves are like this, but we do – does that mean we are spoiled?
Here is Gerardo, riding a new retro-classic from Eberly – the perfect board for days like today.
Here is one of the three brothers who run the hostel at Maderas. We call him “Don King”, but other than that I have no idea what his real name is. He was giving me a hard time today that I never put up any surfing pictures of him. I wonder why?
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday afternoon’s surf report from French Fries. The wind was strong, but the direction of the wind was fine. I’d argue there was a touch more power and consistency today, so better waves.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday’s surf report from French Fries. The wind started to rip today, but the direction of the wind was fine.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Sunday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The wind was nowhere near as bad as forecasted. The waves were fun again today, not quite as good and consistent as yesterday, but better than forecasted.
