Somewhere in Nicaragua
What’s up folks? This is your favorite reporter bringing you all the action for the Monday surf report. Today Pancho and I drove up to the NSR Beach House, expecting to score some fun waves and we did. The waves were running about chest to head high with some occasional over head waves on sets, the wind was offshore and the water was nice. Check it out!!!
First at all, we want to give a special shout out to Ara from San Francisco. He’s one of Pancho’s friends, he actually went to college with him back in the old days. The really old days. HA! Here he is with his first official surf shot on NSR!As always, we have lots more shots for you to check out on NSR Surf Shots. Just click on any of the photos and you’ll be able to see them.
The lineup was not crowded at all, there were only about 9 or 10 guys out and everybody was really mellow. This is Dominic bottom turning a nice right hander.
This is Dominic’s friend working on his backside style on this left. Hey guys, we have some cool shots of you, so let us know if you want to check them out.
Shot 2, racing down the line.
Shot 3, setting up!
Shot 4, getting into the green room!
Shot 6, behind the curtain!
Shot 7, totally disappeared!
Shot 9, is he still there?
Shot 10, there is no way he is going to make it out of that thing, uh!
Shot 11, after 5 shots totally disappeared I thought that he was not going to pull that out so I was thinking to quite.
Shot 13, that’s Pancho in the inside watching that incredible wave. Hey Mr Brown, I’m sorry because this is the last shot that I took because I gave up on you! When I put down the camera, Mr. Brown came shooting out of this insanely long barrel. Sorry man, won’t happen again!
Here we have this unknown rider getting into a small but nice and tight little shack on this right. Everybody was so stoked because we have tons of fun waves to be had.
Olli “El Calvito” paddled out and picked some really nice ones as well. Check him out looking good on that left hander. That guy on the beach might be jealous, uh!
We always have some sick wipe outs to watch when we have good waves. Here is this guy with the wipe out of the day.
To finish the day we want to post a sick little sequence of Chapin on this sweet left hander. Chapin rocked up to the beach in a sailboat today. He hopes to learn enough to sail around the world searching for unknown surf spots. Sick man. Shot 1, taking off!
Shot 2, pumping the breaks!
Shot 4, pulling in!
Shot 5, behind the curtain!
Shot 7, disappeared!
Shot 8, is he still there?
Shot 10, can I quite?
Shot 11, is that him looking for the door?
Shot 13, clean and safe on the last shot of the day. The waves should be a little bit smaller tomorrow but it might be still pretty fun, so be sure to check us back out.
