Somewhere in Nicaragua
Pancho here, checking in from Latitude Zero. Really, I’m staying right on the equator, which also happens to be the name of the resort. It’s a nice place – I just got here today. I had to take a boat instead of flying (mechanical problems on the plane…don’t want to chance that here). It’s a 16 hour trip. This is me on the upper deck. That little island over my right shoulder is where I’m staying for the next week. It’s ok to be jealous.
I surfed today but don’t have any photos to show for it. Roberto, donde estas amigo? It’s small right now, but still fun. The water is crystal clear and there are no other surfers in sight. I forgot how beautiful it was over here. It’s been 10 years since my last trip. Everywhere you look, it’s a postcard. This is the corner of our little island. Perfect. (and there’s a great wave just around the other side)
This is a close-up of our little island (complete with gourmet chef and internet access). The swell forecast is small for the next several days so I’m going to try take some diving photos or something. Next week, we’re getting some waves. That’s all for today. I’m toasted from the sun and am headed to sleep. Later.
What’s up folks? We are Lucha and Miguel throwing a couple shots in. The winds were howling onshore, raining pretty much all day long again but there were still some fun ones to be ride at the bay. Check out how dark the bay looks, that’s why all the rain has made in the last days. Check it out!!!
There were a few clean and fun nuggets rollin in. This local kid got to score some of he better ones. Getting ready to destroy that ramp coming at to him!
A few kids found some really good sections to practice a couple aerial moves. This is El Boquitas going big with this frontside.
There were some nice sized set waves coming in at the bay this afternoon. Here we caught this one with no takers!
RECENT REPORTS
Happy Halloween everyone! This Friday was definitely had epic moments at Playa Colorado. It was a bit lulled out between the sets, but they definitely delivered when they came.
Wow! A surprise gift for us surfers here in Iguana this Thursday. I was expecting the surf to be small, but this morning it looked really fun.
Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. The waves were decent all day long today. The wind was still, and the wave faces were smooth. The sets were head-high when they came.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
What’s up folks? We’ve got a new long period swell starting to show a little bit today. Waves are running about chest to head high with inconsistent sets. The wind was swirling around from offshore to sideshore so it wasn’t quite as good as it could’ve been. Either way, there were a few fun ones..
Today we were ready to make it to the beach and score some good waves with offshore wind but it was raining a lot this morning and it made all the roads bumpy. Any way we loaded “El Burro” up and headed out to Maderas around 9:30 am, it was still raining but not too..
Hi fellas, we are “Lucha Libre and Come Pan Panic” with the report for today. It’s about chest to shoulder high on sets and the wind is offshore out here at Maderas but there are some fun waves coming through. Check out the lineup.
