Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hey there surfistas! Welcome back for the Sunday surf report. Had another great day of surfing. Drop in and check it out!
The swell that came in yesterday was still holding, although I would to rate yesterdays session EPIC compared to todays which was GOOD and still fun, just not as consistent and peaky.
Still a lot of barrels to be had out there. Lots of rights….
…. and lefts.
Just choose the sand bar you want to sit on and score all afternoon.
I did notice a theme with todays shots.
But first check out this empty draining nugget. I saw quite a few of these go by unridden.
Especially up at the reef. I didn’t see anyone surfing up that way (at least while I was shooting).
Parker in pig dog heaven. So back to what I was saying, I started to notice almost everyone out was pretty much going against the grain… be it, the grain of their natural stance that is.
Pig DOGGGGER
Here’a another.
Gray, pigdoggin (as well), and ridiculously deep on this one. I had turned juts in time to see him pulling into this thing; and it ran for quite a few seconds, while he was completely covered up.
Definitely the wave of the day that Tony, D-Lite and I all three witnessed right then and there. Sick one Gray!!
Well, ok maybe even one more witness to add to that.. Did you see that, amigo??
The sun was out (for the most part) and it was guaranteed a really nice Sunday beach day for everyone who came down.
Austin Smith Ford is back down in Nica-Land getting ready for the Oakley Surf Shop Challenge. I’ve got my money on him since he was just here not too long ago (for quite while too in fact) and he pretty much has this place dialed in.
The talent is starting to arrive and they’re pretty frothing on this wave already.
But that didn’t stop any of the local boys to get out there and show them a thing or two about this wave.
Not a bad place to hold a contest, I just hope the weather doesn’t get whacky!!
Chocoyo, local ripper and tube hound aficionado.
HotStickHannah’s, wasn’t about to leave his cheese out in the wind. He would rather shred the queso… and what a fine job he’s doing here too!
I really hope the waves, wind and weather come together the next few days. Would be cool to see everybody killing it out here this week.
Dreamy Nicaragua, in October. It’s not an illusion…. Or is it??
Parker got his shred on, now I guess it’s time for real work. Dale buddy!
YOU ALL READY FOR THIS??? Oscar sure is!! Show em how it’s done Hermano.
So that’s a wrap, at least for today. Pop on by this week to see how that contest will be going. We’ll be here to show you photos and updates with hopefully some really sick surfing all the competitors will be brining down with their bag of tricks. Until then, hasta pronto ~
RECENT REPORTS
Hey everyone! Welcome to Friday’s surf report from Playa Colorado! The waves were similar size to yesterday. Shoulder high on the sets, but smaller in between.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. The size dropped even more today, but there were still a few finale sets that rolled through in the morning. I guess everyone was burned out from the last swell as the crowd was light all day long.
Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. The swell definitely dropped slightly overnight, but as you can see there were still some gems!
