Nicaragua Surf Report for Saturday, July 29, 2023

Josh S

Well, well, well! The swell surprised slightly to the upside today, being larger today than yesterday (contra-forecast). So yeah, welcome to Saturday’s surf report from Colorados.

Lesther Espinoza snuck out for a quick lunch-break surf during his lifeguard duty today. He linked together a few good combos during his short time in the water.

Josh S

Lesther has a really tight backside bottom turn which enables him to get vertical on pretty soft sections. The judges would’ve liked this wave!

Josh S

Simone on one of the bigger rights I saw while shooting this morning. I like her line of sight here and that she coiled up in preparation for a strong extending drive up + across the face.

Josh S

Alright, this guy definitely takes the cake for the most stylish shot of the day. Not only is he throwing a fan of spray, but he’s fanning the spray with his hands!

Josh S

This wave had so much foam and froth that it seemed like a completely different break. This guy managed the white powder nicely, so perhaps he’s a snowboarder as well?

Josh S

BAAMM! This guy blasted the back off of this right corner.

Josh S

Finley’s so nimble that he can even do tail slides on burger faces. Nice fins, Fin!

Josh S

Lesther tagged out with Oscar for the dynamic duo mid-day shred fest. Oscar displaying text-book form on this opening frontside top-turn.

Josh S

Then on the inside he twisted his whole bodyweight through this second carve. The Espinoza brothers definitely combo’d the competition in their respective heats today haha

Josh S

Another right elbow jab from from a regular foot rider to get his fins to push through another solid top-turn.

Josh S

No Sandos! Se perdio el tubo :( Haha I’m giving him a hard time. We all have had a couple near misses like this during our time here. They haunt us the rest of the session haha

Josh S

Britt Yoga was out and stroking into some nuggets today! That’s a good first step, the second step is to tuck in tight under the lip on these hollow yet relatively tame rights :)

This Saturday was another beautiful day in paradise! A good day to hit the beach for a tan, a stroll, some toñas, or some waves. Tomorrow Tony Z returns to the report, but the surf is forecasted to be a bit smaller. Be sure to pop back in to see if we get another surprise to the upside in terms of swell though!
