Somewhere in Nicaragua
Do we get big waves here in Nicaragua? You tell me. Today was pushing triple overhead on sets and the winds were blowing lightly offshore. We took out the Dirty Sanchez and shot these from the boat. Here is what it looked like.
Here is Luis – who says he can’t surf big waves?
Oliver was the man today, riding his 6-0 shortboard and charging.
This is Oliver getting barreled.
But the wave of the day goes to Manuel. There were long lulls in between sets, but he waited it out and picked off the biggest wave that came through. Hasta Manana.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday afternoon’s surf report from French Fries. The wind was strong, but the direction of the wind was fine. I’d argue there was a touch more power and consistency today, so better waves.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday’s surf report from French Fries. The wind started to rip today, but the direction of the wind was fine.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Sunday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The wind was nowhere near as bad as forecasted. The waves were fun again today, not quite as good and consistent as yesterday, but better than forecasted.
