Hola and welcome to the Monday surf report. It’s back to the grind… well if I can really even call my work a grind when I get to play in super fun waves every day. Hit that read more tab to see what I’m referring to!

That’s right. New swell means lots of little get-a-ways. Because that’s what surfers do.

Here, one of my new amigos getting away from his away trip. Showboating for a boat load of other get-a-way dudes!

One of my other new buddies joining in on the fun today, Kiko (AKA “Frank Zappa”) letting his mustache do the talking.

This guy’s a riot! Every single wave he got (which was quite a bit today) he always has this super huge grin on his face.

Of course, when he was running the gauntlet on this inside section of rocks, table tops and crustacean covered below sea level boulders, things got a little more serious.

But as you can see… that infectious smile always came back every single paddle right back out.  Now you see why I gave him the nickname “Frank Zappa”.

Today was the beginning of the new swell, which was why we chose this place to surf today. It was prefect for this pace. Uncrowded and perfect with two of your best friends out sharing waves at an amazing Nicaraguan point break.

What else would you rather do on a Monday???

I’m sure meeting the reef with your face isn’t one of them, but don’t worry, that’s not what happened here. I don’t think? Kudos to this guys for going for it though!

Had he continued on his journey to cruise past me, this is where he might have been.

I was stoked Marcelo had that bright green watch on. I think I asked him what time is was only once out in the lineup today. That was of course only to check the time for the tide.

The tide was actually helping to improve the waves here this morning. Notice the size was also increasing with the incoming swell.

If you’re lucky to have surfed this wave with minimal to no people out, you can appreciate how fun this wave can be.

Now throw in a couple cameras shooting you and you’ve got yourself your very own mini “pro” surf trip all to yourselves.

Every moment caught so you can go back to your Casa later and cheers some beers with your buddies and heckle the sh!t out of each other.

Getting hooted at by your buddies on the shoulder, as you’re taking your twenty something wave for the morning always helps relieve a little bit of that noodle arm syndrome each paddle back out.

Just be sure not to get caught by these little freight trains.  They’re pretty but they pack a nice little punch.

before taking the low line.

and then using all that speed to lay into a nice big carve like the one you see here.

What a prefect place for Frank Zappa to perform some of his solo work.

Size does actually matter at this place. Too big and it’s not as fun as say a day like we scored today.

That and the other thing to consider is the viscous high tide backwash. Can you say hang on…. bucking bronco!!!

I wasn’t lying when I said we had a small stealthy crew. We came small, but the stoke level we left with, was HUGE!!!
