Nicaragua Surf Report for Saturday, October 28, 2023

Josh S

Saturday surf report time from Colorados. I had to pinch myself / do a double take upon rocking up to shoot this morning. Who turned the waves on?

Josh S

Dani Cruche further refining his backside barrel riding form. I like how much wider his stance is now, and how he has his sternum facing directly down the line.

Josh S

My eyesight is a bit rough presently, so I’m not sure if this is Bruno logging some backside tube time or an impostor.

Josh S

Oh OK! This chica even tossed some spray on the bogey.

Josh S

I guess that wasn’t all she had in mind. She got inverted with a spinner combo on the inside.

Josh S

S-layback snap.

Josh S

Man, I feel so bad for sleeping in this morning now… Oh well, I still got a couple head dips later at high tide. *Coping* :’(

Josh S

It sucks to get inverted on these air drops when it’s a good wave, but it’s really satisfying when you do ride out of these crazy drops. This guy rode through this one and I bet he had some adrenaline flowing.

Josh S

Oh my goossshhh, how perfect is this right running toward us here. By this point I was about ready to sprint full speed back to my house and grab my board haha.

Josh S

Good form Dani! You’d easily make the Olympic dive team for Nica or Uruguay haha! I do these sorts of dives all the time too, so let he who is without sin throw the first stone.

Josh S

The chica bodyboarder scoring some air time. She was fired up today.

Josh S

Bruno or his impostor locking into a sandy left dungeon again. He was getting some good waves, but I don’t think his narrow stance is as functional as Dani’s wider stance seen earlier in this report.

Josh S

Speak of the devil! Yep, Dani’s stance is definitely better, but here he could probably open up his hips a bit more so that his front knee isn’t obstructing his chest as much. To be fair this is still pretty close to ideal posture IMO.

Josh S

Well guys we got lucky today! I was not even remotely expecting offshore flow today, but it showed up. I’m going to get to bed early tonight so I’ve got a shot at low-tide tomorrow morning if the offshore shows up again. See you guys again tomorrow while Tony is temporarily in pursuit of greener pastures.
