Somewhere in Nicaragua
OK, so we’ve got some killer water shots sent in by Brent at Arena Caliente. We are taking a vacation this week (read: we are not in Nicaragua), but we hope to have plenty of pictures and reports sent in from our affiliates. Thanks Brent! We’ve got chest to head high sets today at Maderas and offshore winds all day long. Here is Gerardo learning how to surf with camera men in the water.
And we can’t tell who this is, but it was a nice shot. In other more disturbing news, our main photographer Roberto was attacked by a monkey on the way to the beach yesterday. No shit. He got pretty scratched up on his arms and leg and went to a doctor today to be treated for rabies. All I received was a cryptic email in spanish so I’m not sure how it all went down. This country is crazy sometimes. Roberto, send me an email and let me know how you are doing.
This just in, more pictures from Roberto. He still hasn’t given me the details about the monkey attack, but I guess he’s ok since he’s still taking pictures.
This always happens when I go out of town…
RECENT REPORTS
Hello and happy Sunday. The surf is in the waist to occasional shoulder high wave, but the winds were brutally strong and side shore most of the day. @tonyzphotos reporting.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Friday’s mid-day surf report from French Fries. Today might’ve been the smallest day that I’ve seen in a month or so. It was almost like a lagoon between the sets! There were a few diamonds in the rough tough.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday evening’s surf report from Colorados. The waves were very small again today. This guy on the soft-top chose the right tool for the job.
