Nicaragua Surf Report for Tuesday, November 14, 2017

Javier Baldovinos

Hello everyone, this is Baldo reporting this time from Colorado. The onshore winds from yesterday stayed longer than anyone expected and it looks like it’s staying like this for another day or two.

Javier Baldovinos

I’ve been in this parts of the Tola woods for the last two weeks as NSR Guest Services (covering Parker), also training the new guy, Kevin (he is doing his first report tomorrow!) on how to take good care of our guests.

Today was hot and humid but with the onshore breeze the beach felt really good… if you stayed in the shade of course.

A group of bodysurfers were the only ones catching all the lefts. They were having a blast, going for long rides, rotating and looking all good in the waves.

Javier Baldovinos

These three guys were having a difficult time deciding where to paddle out, should they go for the lefts or the rights?

Javier Baldovinos

They just went right in the middle to try to catch both… Is he making sure I’m taking photos of them or just checking out the girl behind them?

On the rights you could see many big turns with many big sprays on each wave.

And on the rights were around 6-8 surfers enjoying the long walls turn after turn.

… one of the bodysurfers that managed to find some cover on an onshore mushy gem.

And every so often you could also see the bottom of the surfboards during small air rotations.

What’s the most common (good) way to finish a good wave? Get some speed before and hit the incoming lip with power.

The “Perfect 10” goes to the only barrel I saw this morning…

Surfing is all about having fun and these guys were KILLING IT at it… look at that big smile!!

Talking about big smiles… Katie showed up ready to catch some fun waves.

Javier Baldovinos

You can see Katie in the water almost every day here at Colorado. But if you want to see her big smile up close, come by the NSR Surf Shop on the weekends and say Hi to her, she will make sure you have a good time while buying at the shop.

Don’t miss out Kevin’s first surf report tomorrow. In person he is a fun guy to be around and, did I mentioned that he is a professional photographer? I bet his photos and writing will be good material for all the NSR fans. Buenas noches!

Javier Baldovinos

Tomorrow the waves will get a little bit smaller and the winds will continue flowing the wrong way, but the water will still be warm and the waves will still be fun.
