Somewhere in Nicaragua
Thursday surf report on tap from Colorados. Today the waves were even a bit better than yesterday, so get ready for some tube time.
Unfortunately, it looks like this hollow section caught this guy off-guard! This shot highlights that just below mid-tide today even the medium sizers were barreling.
Oscar Espinoza getting grabby on this air reverse! Textbook form and a really cool neon board to add further style points.
Nacho (one of two Nacho’s here presently) working on his pig-dog form. The rights were running perfectly across the sandbar during today’s photo window.
The bodyboarders weren’t too be outdone today! This guy did a sick roll after projecting up off the lip and rode out of it. Inverted!
Carlos got a pretty good barrel, but this guy’s was even better in my opinion. He found one of the higher quality waves of the morning and locked in low straight away.
This guy was keen on taking his perfect barrel to value town. Notice his double hand drag to sit as deep as possible.
Then as the next section started to pitch down the line, he extended a bit at his knees and lifted his hands to squeeze in a pump. Still deep though!
Boogeyboarders on tube patrol as well. Set that rail just right!
Froth master! This guy engaged the perfect part of his rail to navigate this really foamy left.
Sunshine and smiles, another day in Iguana’s paradise! It’s been a fun couple days of surf, so hopefully this win streak carries on for the next few days. From what I recall, tomorrow is forecasted to be quite similar to today, so if you check back in you’ll likely see some more tubular action! Thanks for checking in y’all and have a good one.

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.
