Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hello folks, this is Alex giving you this Friday’s surf report. This morning saw pretty poor conditions with overcast skies and patches of heavy rain coming though. The ocean brought small and disorganized surf, but there were still plenty of surfers to take pictures of who found a couple nuggets. At least the water is warm, the winds are not onshore, and there are traces of swell in the water. Check it…
Like I said, some patches of rain made for some funky conditions. Still somehow there were barrels to be had. Check out this lucky guy hiding tucked into a little barrel.
There were some random ramps coming though. This ripper is making most of the conditions.
The left looks alright, but check out this right throwing nicely on the bars.
This guy came flying down the line and glided (or should I say floated) over the closeout section. Nice one amigo!
Some waves offered a nice rippable wall. I wonder what’s going through this guys head?
The disorganized swell threw nuggets out at random. Even with a packed lineup, many sneaked past the surfers, but this A frame should have gotten ridden!
This surfer found a sweet little corner to set his fins free and let the spray fly!
Never a bad time to work on your pig dogging. Go deeper!
Recently the river broke through and connected to the ocean. Maybe we will get more sick sand bars! That’s all for today my barrel hunting friends. Unfortunately, the forecast is looking meager. It has been and will continue to be a pretty flat August, which is not very normal for here. But then again, nothing is really “normal” with the weather. I hear it has been a lake in California, so be sure to check back for tomorrow because the barrels are small, but at least we got some. Cheers!
RECENT REPORTS
Hey everyone! Welcome to Friday’s surf report from Colorados. It was another small, but fun day of waves. Looks like the last mellow day for a good eight to nine days. Finley managed to find a couple of tubitos.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. The surf was still fairly small today. There were moments where it pulsed and moments where it lulled out. Still clean and good for turns.
Hey amigos! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. The small “gap” days are here! Funnily enough there were still some mini-drainers at Colorados this Wednesday morning.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Hey everyone, Brian here again, bringing you the action from the beach here in sunny Nicaragua. Swell dropped a little bit today, still some fun waves coming in around waist to chest high and steady offshore winds. I’m sure none of you would complain, even when it’s small here you can still have more fun..
We want you all to know that we are just adding a few brand new boards to our quiver, the biggest quiver in the whole country. From 6’1 to 7’6, sick Merrick, sweet Byrne, and also a nice Santa Cruz, fishes and funboards. There will be listed on our rentals in the next two days,..
Today the winds finally got back to normally (Just for the Morning) but we had time enough to score some sick waves. As I said yesterday a few barrels were caught and they were still many more barreling waves rolling in all the way in with no takers. It was overhead on sets with nice..
