The swell interval dropped, which meant the waves weren't as thick. Thin lips results in less "pitch" which creates barrels.

Many of the surfers were keen on finding tubes. The rights were hollower though.

Oof. Pretty bad burn from this girl. I don't think the guys said anything after. You never want to be the larry with your butt stuck out in someone else's face. That being said, the size and power weren't too critical today, so burns weren't that egregious. I would've been bummed if I was that guy though, as this was one of the better sets of the morning.

All things considered, it was a better day to work on turns.

This guy caught onto the fact that the rights were better and less contested.

The sandbars have already improved notably, but the "stringy" waves were still fast!

It was smaller today, so you really had to be compact and tight to the walls if you were looking for tubes.

Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Colorados. I saw the waves turn on and off about 7 separate times today. The conditions were in constant flux. It just so happened to be that the best window of the day was when I took pictures around 1:00pm.

Welcome to the start of another week here in wonderful Nicaragua! Kind of got a little weird with the weather today as it progressed, but you could feel the humidity since last night. Definitely felt like it was going to maybe rain, or as you will see in today pics, it got a bit onshore..
