Nicaragua Surf Report for Monday, February 12, 2024

Josh S

Hi everyone! Welcome to Monday’s surf report from Panga’s main peak and Spot X. It was super clean at mid-day when I was shooting today.

Meanwhile at Spot X…

Josh S

The MVP of today’s surf report and AM session was Kai DeLorenzo. His understanding and intuition of Spot X is superior to the rest of us.

Get ready for a lengthy tube sequence from Kai. I think he likes getting barreled at least as much as I do.

Josh S

His confident take off told me everything I needed to know. He had this barrel in the bag from the start.

Josh S

It was a fairly deep and lengthy tube. Maybe he was inspired by the recent contest(s) at Pipeline?

Josh S

There he is! Here comes the tricky exit…

But he carefully navigated the doggy door exit.

Full / complete exit. That’s a 10 - bagger for today Kai.

There was a small group of surfers out at Main Peak. It look a bit more patience out there and the tide was so-so, but it’s hard to turn down sheet glass Pangas.

Josh S

Pangas will test your ability to surf in the pocket. Speed and rail-work are the primary elements of the game here.

Josh S

This young fella has the right idea with the choice to execute a roundhouse here.

To close the report we have a legend from the past, kinda like Satoshi Nakamoto haha. You can tell this guy is a legend (non-derogatory), because he’s wearing the super-long classic boardies that go lower than your knees.

Josh S

Those long-boardies are some of my favorite. They aren’t always the most comfortable, but I kinda like them. The surfer linked together a good combo here. Kai still was the MVP though.

Josh S

Speaking of Kai-lorado, he also met the winning surf criteria by expressing his stoke from the session. It just takes a couple nuggets at Spot X to make your day. I think tomorrow is forecasted to be a bit bigger and unfortunately some vicious wind is forecasted in the cards, but I’ll bring you tomorrow’s action regardless. Have a good one.
