Somewhere in Nicaragua
Another day, more perfect waves. I tweaked my neck two days ago and swore I would rest it…after this swell. Today we’ve got slightly overhead sets and morning offshore winds – the wind turned around in the afternoon. It didn’t matter because we’d already surfed for 5 hours. This is Kike, a Las Salinas local.
We’d like to officially welcome Tim Gras of Gras Surfboards and Mark to Nicaragua. Both are visiting from San Francisco, CA. This is Tim…getting used to the warm water.
…and here’s Mark.
What would a photo session be without a tube sequence from Mr. Brown?
We actually had so many “Mr. Brown” tube sequences to choose from, it was hard to pick which one to post.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey everyone! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The swell was notably stronger than I expected. Some early season Pacific power! Middle peak was the place to be, but it was windy.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were pretty much firing when I rocked up to take pictures, but just like yesterday the wind went side-shore as soon as I put the camera away. At least some surfers caught the magic window.
Hey amigos! Welcome to March 1st’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were really fun in the late morning and early afternoon. The wind direction was perfect, but then flipped side-shore right as I went to grab my board haha.
