Somewhere in Nicaragua
Bringing you the Mexi road trip report this is Carl. Pancho and I stepped outside to these Zicatela bombs. A few looked makeable…very few. One surfer was out, he caught one inbetweener but mostly watched set waves unload on the sandbar. Pretty impressive welcome to Puerto Escondido.
We ended up surfing the point all day. Honestly how could anyone pass up six hours of this. Oh, and this was early at high tide, as the tide dropped out it got bigger, hollower and stayed clean until past 2 o’clock. Mexico has been good to the traveling NSR crew, no joke.
Check back tomorrow.
This is Roberto with the surf report for today. We don’t believe what is happening in Nicaragua right now, all the spot are closing out. It is like this swell direction is not good for us, anyway we made it out to the beach and this is what we found. Solid over head, closing out and offshore wind.
Zamir was trying to get fun on a close out waves, surfing by himself at Maderas.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos. Welcome to Thursday’s late morning report from Colorados. It was clean this AM, but notably smaller. The sets still had enough size to offer up tubitos.
Hey amigos! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. Wednesday was a let down compared to what was forecasted. It was not 4ft @ 16 sec as projected by Surf-lie haha. The sets were good when they came, but there was one quality set every 20 minutes roughly. It was a waiting..
Hello Tuesday, I checked Colorado in the morning hoping the new swell was going to be showing, but didn’t see much happening yet. So decided to check Panga drops up the beach our local swell magnet. @tonyzphotos reporting.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
We still have offshore winds and we still have small swell. Check out Rex (this is Roque’s 12 year old cousin), coming off the top. This kid rips. No doubt he will be a contender in a year or two.
