Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hi folks, this is Roberto “Lucha Libre” Garcia bringing you the Saturday surf report from Maderas. Today tons of people made it out to the beach and was having so much fun, some of the people was surfing, meanwhile other ones were just relaxing on the beach drinking some Tonas and warming up for the big party tonight. The waves were super fun running about shoulder to head high on sets with some occasional over head sets that were coming through, the wind was off shore and the water was crystal clear. Check out what we got today.
Let’s start with the action, today we had a lot of backpackers taking off on every single wave that came through, making it hard to all the good surfer who wanted to rip a wave all the way in to the beach. Here is Rodolfo “El Tablon” Zapata who was asking for some respect in the water.
Here is the main plate of the day; it looks like nobody understands the best thing of surfing “SHARE THE WAVES AND MAKE SOME NEW FRIENDS”. Don’t forget it, please!!!
Eu was so stoke to be able to paddle out today and was having so much fun out there. He’s been out of the surf for a while because he’s too busy running the Surf and Sport Shop in town.
RECENT REPORTS

Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. This lady either ended up a bit later than anticipated or misunderstood what it means to get barreled haha! I’ve got to give her credit for looking at this wave though. You don’t know if you don’t go (or at least look at going).
Hey amigos! Josh here behind the lens for the foreseeable future. Today’s report is coming from Panga Drops. The waves were pretty small again today, but just big enough for a few people to rip.

It wasn’t that far on the map but it took us most of the day to make Acapulco. Winding through the city streets (which are not unlike Chinatown, SF on a weekday afternoon), we were certain that we were lost several times. However, after one refueling stop and getting pulled over by the fuzz we..
Man, it’s tough to do this without a computer, but we are going to try. Right now we are working with borrowed equipment and it’s just not the same. Please bear with us until we get up an running again with another laptop. We’ve got head high sets and offshore winds today at Maderas. Check..
