Nicaragua Surf Report for Wednesday, September 20, 2023

Josh S

Hola a todos! Josh back behind the lens again for the next few days. Wednesday morning’s surf at Colorados was relatively small, but fun. If you were patient there were even a few tubes out there.

Josh S

Koji came out flying this morning. He’s going for the rail grab too!

Josh S

The water color has been beautiful lately with less rip currents pushing through the lineup. This guy got a nice ride on this right, but I think he could’ve squeezed into the barrel if he’d pig-dogged the drop.

Josh S

Kevin and Elise couldn’t let all the visitors catch all the waves haha! They both had higher volume equipment which was a good move given the lack of swell.

Josh S

This guy in black was out there hacking away this morning.

Josh S

He didn’t leave anything on the table with this inside section blast. Full powah!

Josh S

Elise showing some of her signature style, five toes over the nose.

Josh S

A nice rooster tail from this guy on this right.

Josh S

Elise working on her double hand drag here for the next time we get a bigger swell. Prepping for some tube time!

Josh S

Whoosh! Ryan McGill thrusting some buckets out the back with a good sequence of rotation.

Josh S

Yuji was our little lucky leprechaun today… You’ll see why later in the report.

Josh S

Koji made some new friends! Or are they photo-bombing him? Either way I don’t usually see these unique birds with skinny beaks flying out over the water.

Josh S

The moment we’ve all been waiting for… Yuji’s 10 pointer.

Josh S

This wave hit the bar perfectly and lined up so nice for Yuji.

Josh S

It was a fast wave, so he had to work in a few quick pumps.

Josh S

He got really deep and even wrestled with a little rip underneath his board through the last part of the barrel.

Josh S

He’s pretty much made it…

Josh S

And he’s securely made it out! The crowd goes wild! 10 pointer and heat winner of the day haha!

Josh S

Adam Miller cruising with grace on a fun looking longboard.

Josh S

Nosedive! Oh well, it happens to everyone occasionally. At least this girl had the guts to commit and send it on this late drop!

Josh S

I wasn’t expecting to capture such an action packed report today given the smaller size, but the mid-tide and good mix of surfers provided! Tomorrow looks like it should be fairly similar, probably a touch smaller. Given the skill level of the locals and visitors I think there will be plenty of shredding going down though, so be sure to stop back by for tomorrow’s report!
