Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hi everyone! Welcome to Saturday morning’s surf report from Colorados. The waves were smaller today, but luckily I got down to take photos before the wind came up around 9:30am.
“She’s a little runaway…”
It’s hard to believe that the waves have been so glassy in the mornings, as evidenced here, and so choppy at mid-day haha. Volatile weather conditions.
This surfer caught a relatively good left, but was still curious about whether or not he missed a better wave out the back haha. There was a good right that came in behind his wave, but he would’ve been too wide to catch that one anyways. The grass isn’t always greener on the other side!
Tubes were pretty scarce this morning because the size was down from yesterday. This guy had the correct idea to focus on turns.
He carried his speed well through his second carve making for a nice combo. That is generally what I focus on at high-tide, improving my combos of maneuvers.
Lift-off!
A brief moment of shade for this rider all the way down at the river-mouth right. Double-ups were the only waves that would pitch wide enough for barrel opportunities.
A sick boost from this goofy-footer. Representing Mayhem well!
This lucky rider down at the river-mouth right peak made the only barrel of the morning.
His line was a little dicey in my opinion because he locked his hips and drifted a bit low in the barrel. He did a good job of tapping the breaks to get behind the curtain though.
Relish in the victory! Nice work guy. Many of us (myself included) love that feeling of standing tall after exiting the tunnel. Hopefully we get some more like this tomorrow.
Set of the day haha! Well if you didn’t get out there early today, then you probably didn’t get out at all, as the wind started blowing hard onshore by 10:00am. Tomorrow’s forecast looks similar, but hopefully we get a bit of a bump in the size and a longer window in the morning to shred. Let’s see what action Tony captures mañana.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. This lady either ended up a bit later than anticipated or misunderstood what it means to get barreled haha! I’ve got to give her credit for looking at this wave though. You don’t know if you don’t go (or at least look at going).
Hey amigos! Josh here behind the lens for the foreseeable future. Today’s report is coming from Panga Drops. The waves were pretty small again today, but just big enough for a few people to rip.
Happy Sunday everyone, Thanks for tuning. We had another fun morning of waves at the reef. @tonyzphotos bringing you todays action.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Howdy everyone! Here’s Thursday’s surf action from Colorados. The size of the surf has dropped even further again, but the local Nicaraguan shredders cleaned house again today.
Happy humpity hump Wednesday everyone! Another gorgeous day out there on the water. Swell is in about the 3-4 (occasional) 5 foot range, nice light offshores and the lighting was spectacular!
Happy Tuesday friends! We had an amazing day of nice sizable waves, WITH offshore winds and all there fixin’s for hopefully another one of those “September Sessions” kind of seasons. Jump in and get cyber barreled along with those who were out there today!
