Somewhere in Nicaragua
Happy Sunday Funday surf peeps! Like I promised, and luckily thankfully mother nature delivered, we were graced with, yet, another great day of surf.
The term Sunday Funday is used pretty loosely here, but for good reason, and rightfully so today. The boys heading down to their stomping grounds.
When we have waves like this, this consistently, it really makes my job as a photographer all that much more easy.
It also makes anyone who surfs here, the much happier! Lesther…. so happy!
This visiting surfer…. even more happy.
This is where the offshore’s and style work like two peas’ in a pod.
Carlos, in his all too familiar place. The only way you will know it’s him is if you saw what board he paddled out on, or you wait to see if he makes it out; which 9 times out of 10 will be the case.
Going for the big floater with these winds can be very tricky. You more than likely will get blown right off the back of the wave, but luckily for this guy, he pulled it off with no problems.
Sunday Funday, in all it’s glory! Because surfing is all about meeting and making great new friendships. I’m sure this dude bought the other dude a nice cold Toña after they shared this beautiful Nicaraguan wave today.
This guy obviously likes to save his Toña cordobas, so he opted for the solo barrel. Either way…. you can’t go wrong on a Sunday Funday!
Andrew Moyles, taking off on what would be a really nice perspective of a wave at proper PC.
Andrew on the same wave, just a little different perspective. Which angle do you prefer??
Oscar, driving through another green emerald gem from today.
Looking back down the way towards the metropolis surfing mecca…
Carlos always putting on a show for the crowds.
I only saw about 3 (chica) friends out surfing today while I was shooting. Here’s Rutci, nabbing a super sick right in front of about 25 dudes, showing them how it’s done. Bien hecho amiga!
Lesther, working proficiently on his frontside attack.
Kevin, working proficiently on his backside attack.
Earlier, when I said the boys were heading over to their “stomping grounds”, it was sort of a two for one use of the meaning. Oscar stomping one out.
With the decent sized crowd for today, oddly there was the occasional set waves that went by unclaimed.
Who’s your biggest fan… always your hermano!
Same wave, three cracks later and a little end section air just because he can.
Sunday Funday and the three hour tour, making it back safely.
Lesther can displace a whole lot of water anytime he feels like it. But only when he feels like it.
As a photographer, when you see this.. it means…
Get ready for this! ALWAYS.
Meanwhile, back over at Club Med.
Club Med for barrel addicts.
Nice to see one of my other chica amigas Katie, getting a nice clean shoulder all to her self today.
Nice long wave too, Katie. I have the whole sequence, you took that thing all the way in. Maravilloso!!~
By midday (noon) that sun really started to heat things up at the playa, it’s no wonder Lesther is taking to the only place around with some shade.
@katilafloranavigating smoothly around a pretty heafty snowballed section on this nice sized left.
My parting surf shot goes to the homie Oscar Espinoza, out there shredding the waves to pieces today. Hermano muy bien hecho!!~
Alright weekend warriors. Hopefully this weekend’s reports sent you some fun surf stoke to get you amped for the week ahead. Looks like we have some fun waves in the 4’ – 6’ range all week here with good offshores. So many thanks for your dedication for always stopping by and we look forward to serving up some more fun surf stoke for you as always. Con los mejores deseos ~
