Hey everyone! Welcome to Saturday’s surf report from Colorados. The wind was stronger onshore this morning than yesterday morning, but it didn’t stop a handful of determined surfers from getting out there.

This was the closest wave that I saw to an A-frame barrel today haha! A frothy double-up.

This guy understood how critical deep compression is leading into your turns on small days. Gotta get all the drive that you can!

I'm pretty sure the shredders were all part of the same group. Good to see some folks still tearing it up even though the conditions weren't perfect.

My attitude was similar to this guy's here. He kicked out and slashed the wave regardless haha. Giving some push-back to the marginal surf. I feel ya.

I almost got inspired to paddle out watching these guys go town out there. But the wind started puffing hard when a small rain squall passed over.

Because the walls of the waves were split and jumbled, it was oftentimes important to keep your turns tight to the pocket.

You can still showcase unique style and flare even in subpar surf!

The rights were longer and had better end-sections than the lefts. I'm surprised I never saw any of the boys take flight while I shooting, as there were some decent air sections.

This guy realized that this wave was relatively open, so he chose to do a carve rather than a tighter snap. Good decision as the wave wasn't that steep at this point yet either.

The onshore flow continues... It looks like it could still be a little while before any strong offshore flow returns. The onshores haven't been out of control though, so hopefully there are still some windows for us in the coming days. Tony Z returns tomorrow, let's see what he captures.

Welcome back to another day of the life in Nicaragua where currently the weather was pretty nice and sunny most of the day, but between those heavy rains we had last night and the onshore winds that are still here I wasn’t able to find any takers.
