Nicaragua Surf Report for Sunday, August 05, 2018

Brian Scott

Happy Sunday everyone and welcome to todays surf report. A few of us got a little adventurous and decided to take a trip up north by boat. Click that read more button to see how it went.

Brian Scott

Happy early morning small crew, but sometimes it’s better to show up as incognito as you can to some surf spots.

Brian Scott

I will say this much…. there were tons of turtles out in the ocean today. Andrea bout to jump off the boat over a giant Tortuga. haha

Brian Scott

There were a few other people surfing here too. Not sure who this guy is, but he was doing some nice turns.

Brian Scott

Other than our little crew and the other few that came by land, this break was was being absolutely dominated by the local kids.

Brian Scott

For example, check out Vera Cruz local ripper Miguel “Angel” on this wave.

Brian Scott

His buddy Josue was just as impressive with his knowledge of this spot.

Brian Scott

One thing’s for sure here… the Nicaraguan surfing kids are blowing up these waves.

Erik (pictured) has actually competed in some of the best contest in the country.

Brian Scott

It’s no wonder that these kids are so good. They have a pretty good mentor teaching them here. Unfortunately, Sean wasn’t out there today. I heard he’s currently in Puerto Rico.

Brian Scott

Boat trips are always fun!! 9 out of 10 doctors recommend boat trips. the one Dr. who disagreed never learned to swim. I’d still go with the other 9 Docs!

Brian Scott

Mi amiga, Andrea got to really see first hand today, up close, how much our offshores work around here. 

Brian Scott

We’ll just say, they’re great for many factors, the downside is you almost need windshield wiper goggles just so you can paddle into the waves sometimes.

Brian Scott

No goggles needed to see the pure stoke on Andreas face today!

Brian Scott

My other amigo and man of many skills, Bill, testing out his fairly new magic stick he just picked up not too long ago.

Brian Scott

Looks like this thing is working well for you buddy!! How sick was that wave today hermano??

Brian Scott

Yuppppp… I kinda had a feeling you would be super stoked I laid the hammer down on that wave for your entire sequence. 

Brian Scott

Lastly, Hector, another Vera Cruz local kid, showing off his bottom turn perfection at this skatepark of a wave.

Brian Scott

You really can’t go wrong when your form is that pronounced coming out of bottom turn like that and then getting a nice backhand turn from all that beautiful style.

Brian Scott

Ok my friends. Sorry my report isn’t longer today. It was an all day(er) out there today and I think Im about to go watch my eyelids until tomorrow. Sleep well and we’ll see you back here again mañana. Buenas noches ~
