Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hello and thank you for joining us once again for the Thursday surf report. It has been raining all day long. We had a break in the weather just long enough to run down to the bay and take a couple of pictures. The waves were running waist to chest high with onshore winds and the water is getting dirtier with the continued rain.
While we were taking a shot down at the bay we saw this guy walking on the sewer line crossing the river. We watched in amazement thinking he was going to fall at any minute. In the end he made it.
We took this shot out in front of our house to show you how much water has accumulated in the streets. The storm drains are about five feet deep and they were almost full this morning. We are hoping this storm clears because we are supposed to have offshore winds on Sunday.
You always see them in videos but to watch them first hand is something special. They have so much board control that it seems that they can do anything they want on each and every wave. We had so many pictures to choose from but these were two of our favorites. That’s all for today, please check back with us tomorrow.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday afternoon’s report from Panga Drops. The waves were definitely cleaner and better today, but still fairly small.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday afternoon’s surf report from Panga Drops. The ESE devil wind flared up this afternoon. I had to coax John into paddling out and playing stuntman at French Fries.
Hey amigos! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. This Wednesday’s report is coming your way from Panga Drops. It was a little inconsistent, but there was a bit more size today on the sets. All of these peaks had their moments today too. Lucy setting up for a super clean right..
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Hi guys, we are Jairo
Oh no, not again. So we are learning a lot about keeping a boat moored in Bahia San Juan and the Dirty Sanchez is taking a beating in the process. This morning, about 10am, the rough seas caused the mooring to break and the Dirty washed up on the beach.
The streak continues!!! More onshore winds and small waves here in Nicaragua. If you’re sitting at a desk back in the US, this is what you are missing.
