Nicaragua Surf Report for Thursday, December 21, 2023

Josh S

Hi everyone! Welcome to Thursday evening’s surf report from Panga Drops. We received a surprise boost in the swell and the wind lightened up some relative to yesterday. Did today’s surfers cruise as gracefully as these pelicans?

Josh S

I wonder if this gentleman could’ve pulled into and through this somewhat hollow corner-section of this right? What do you think viewer?

Josh S

Dario wasn’t content to cruise like the pelicans today. Instead he decided to surf with cheat codes enabled and somehow initiate chop-hops on a longboard.

Right or left?

Ryan Templeton couldn’t be stopped this evening. No end-sections or lips were safe from him.

Perfect technique and execution during this high-speed end-section slash. The huge fan of spray verifies the quality of the turn.

Ryan was surfing the left peak in front of Casa Panga Drops all by himself. Plenty of waves and opportunities flowed his way. His knees seem to be holding up fairly well given how low he got during this bottom turn.

After coiling up, he ripped into the lip during the unwind.

Ryan even managed to find some elusive barrels out there! He’s done well at dialing in his positioning at Pangas during his time here in Iguana.

Jeff wiping off some of his extreme speed on one of the larger right-sets of the evening. The long open canvas that Panga fanatics crave.

Josh S

Dario was going so fast across the face here, that I don’t think he could've wiped off speed regardless of his bag of tricks XD

Josh S

Ryan flowing top-to-bottom all the way through to the inside for one of his final waves of the evening. He won the heat tonight!

Golden hour. It’s a popular time to hit the beach amongst surfers and non-surfers alike. Surfers don’t want to miss the evening glass-off and beach goers don’t want to miss a phenomenal sunset. We are blessed to live in such a beautiful place! That’s all of this evening’s best action. Tomorrow’s surf forecast is looking fairly similar, so if you’ve been liking the action then feel free to drop by for more fun and waves from Paradise!
