Nicaragua Surf Report for Saturday, January 13, 2018

Brian Scott

Hey everyone and Happy Saturday! We had some pretty decent fun waves with some howling offshore’s to kick it up a notch. Lets get blown away by todays winds, shall we…

Brian Scott

Not even a need to look in that direction today. This time of year is all about one surf spot.

Brian Scott

And that spot is right here. Now this guy can write home about how he was eaten by the Panga monster and lived to tell about it. Or maybe not?

Brian Scott

Locals don’t really come to this wave, all that often unless it;s small and undesirable at any of the other world class waves we have around here that are normally firing three quarters of the year.  That’s still not to say this spot is a bad wave, we just have so many other high performance waves in close proximity.

Brian Scott

Always so much going on, at least for this photos sake.

Brian Scott

Drop in, hand stall in the actual lip, and cruise right on by in front of your other Long board brethren….. aaaannnd Repeat!!

Brian Scott

That thing about what I said about the locals not surfing this wave that often, simply means, you know we’re going into dry season when you see Leathers hair is… Ummm, dry.

Brian Scott

I was lucky enough to run into Pancho just as he was jumping in today. Our linking up ratio has always been hit or miss, (as we’re both pretty busy guys) but not today! Got him styling on a LB, which isn’t all that often, but when he chooses to go BIG with his small wave foam (he usually is known for his BIG WAVE foam under his feet, surfing big outer reef waves) that’s not to say he still styles pretty hard on whichever large volume board he’s cruising on.

Brian Scott

The other Jefe “Hot Carl” made it down as well. This is a two for Tuesday for me, except it’s Saturday. Go Figure?!?

Brian Scott

Anyone place an order for some hot windy peaks today??

Brian Scott

schralping on a Long board is kind of like an oxymoron of a statement, but make no mistake that this is exactly what this guy is doing.

Brian Scott

Schralping usually looks more like this and what we’re accustomed to seeing. But hey, who likes to go with the norm anyways? Although this kids schralp flare is pretty nice!!

Brian Scott

Rutci has a hunger for schralping, especially when she’s hunting for the barrel. I feel like 2018 might be your year chica!! Lets get you that wall hanger!

Brian Scott

Mr. King of SCHRALP!! Yours’ truly, Señor Pancho Sanchez! How sick is your stance way up on that nose buddy?? You’re totally turning that board like its a shortboard, but with Long board steeze!

Brian Scott

Not schralping!? But stoked non-the-less.

Brian Scott

Any of you older viewers remember the double mint commercials??? Well here’s a blast from the past! Come on’ I know you kinda just sang that song in your head too, didn’t ya?? Don’t lie!

Brian Scott

If I had to show one image from today to say how empty and desolate it was, this would be the shot! Not a soul in site, except for this soul surfer.

Brian Scott

Here come a couple of soul sistah surfers. I wonder what they’re pointing at though?

Brian Scott

Ahhh, that would be Hot Carl roasting Pancho.. but I have proof from earlier that it was the other way around. So this 1 - Pancho, 1 - Hot Carl.

Brian Scott

Whoever said that the bottom turn ins’t a key fundamental ability in your surfing, has obviously lost their rocker!

Brian Scott

and I guess it’s safe to say that the top turn is a close second.

Brian Scott

John Martin making his own statement about that said bottom turn.

Brian Scott

As he sets up his walk to the front of his bitcoin bank account.

Brian Scott

Lets just hope that his crash isn’t a metaphor? Bryan’s sure stoked though. GO JOHN!!!

Brian Scott

There’s nothing better than heading back hitching a ride on your papa’s back. Free shuttle service for this little niña, as I’m sure pops’ feet there is quite hot on that midday sunny sand!

Hope you guys and gals enjoyed the pics and finally some fun waves as well. I’ll see yawl back here again mañana, I hope we have some similar waves. Buenas noches ~
