Somewhere in Nicaragua
Howdy Surf Fans! It was another great day of surfing on this Saturday afternoon. Fun waves, good conditions and all kinds of happy times to be had here at the playa all day long. Let’s check it out, shall we?!?!
Toes touching the water and the initial paddle out is always one of the best feelings from the entire session. Am I wrong?
Surfing imitating the flight, or in this case, the glide.
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say we might have the both some of the best BIG and small waves year round.
Based on the consensus from everyone I’ve spoken with recently, I think it’s safe to say, most humans like the surf in the waist to head high range (in general).
And when it’s on the XS size (like today), you can always grab something that fits even that wave size.
The beauty of this place is it’s rarely ever flat.
But based on todays swell, I think this guy has the right idea.
Si! See! Sea! It’s always fun…!
I’ve never actually ridden a Hypto Crypto, but I can see how they’ve possibly been one of the best and most universal surfboards in history.
Two great examples in one image, exemplifying the purposeful use of two completely different surf crafts on one wave.
One GREAT example of what one guy with a Sh!t-load of talent can do on a one foot wave!
Ryan “Vana” Cook, getting his inner Dane Reynolds Groovy thing on, here in Nica-Land.
That ain’t no “Beard Neck”, but it sure looks retarded cool!!!
Mikey, practicing his inner Dane Reynolds… Errrrr.. that’s if he even knows’ who DR is? Hope you’re keeping your studying up hermano!
I can honestly say that I like that this is where I’ve comfortably called this place home for the last 7 years! Gracias Jeison!
This little hombre has a pretty bright future with his surfing, I can tell!
This Big hombre was more than likely like the little hombre in the last shot. And it warms my heart knowing he’s still at it all these years later!
It was an extreme pleasure meeting ripper Dallas Tolson from North Carolina, ripping these waves to pieces today! Bienvenido hermano!!! Esperamos verte de vuelta aquí abajo cuando las olas son importantes!
Alright my friends… it’s been a super fun Saturday. Now it’s time I make my way over to the Open Mic at Casa Anana’s. It’s been a Great DAY! I hope to see you all back here again mañana. Yewwww ~
