Nicaragua Surf Report for Sunday, January 20, 2019

Brian Scott

Happy Sunday Funday everyone! We still have some amazing swell in the water groomed with some freight train winds and a lot of people out enjoying another beautiful day at the beach here in sunny southern Nicaragua.

Brian Scott

Midday was the time today. Lately the later afternoon time had the optional tides to get on it if you wanted to optimize your surf session, but now it’s been all about the midday sun in the fun.

Brian Scott

Exactly!!! I second what this guy’s saying!

Brian Scott

Colin came out to play in the fun waves we’re having,

Brian Scott

Taking time to get his legs working on both the rights and the lefts.

Brian Scott

Schralper of the day goes to Mr. Hayden. DUDE was on fire today!

Brian Scott

You can’t have a Sunday Funday without a proper sand fight amongst you and your closest friends.

Brian Scott

I feel like this guy is at a disadvantage though… two to one odds, he’s getting beat badly by the mujeres. Dodge and weave buddy, dodge and weave. I’m sure he doesn’t mind.

Brian Scott

Dario, whom made a guest appearance on one of my insta-stories today said it was “alright” out there.

Brian Scott

But then again that’s coming from a guy who surfs, kite surfs, windsurfs and skates every day, so today was (in my best Matthew McConaughey voice)…Alllllllright! Alllllllright! Alllllllright!

Brian Scott

Colin, my other buddy who took the other side of the commentary on the same live story said it was fun. How was that 20 wave set after you got out amigo???? and don't lie, you know you said that line from that last capion in your best Matthew McConaughey voice from Dazed and confused…Alllllllright! Alllllllright! Alllllllright!  Haha

Brian Scott

Nice looking photo of a nice gal walking up the beach, right. What you don’t see is how hard she must be hanging on to her board so it doesn’t go flying away to Guasacate.

Brian Scott

If you need an example of thus said winds…. here ya go!

Brian Scott

Tati going for one of the long rights that were up for grabs out there today.

Brian Scott

She got it! Get ready for a long ride and a lot of wind in your face chica!

Brian Scott

Carlos with his signature layback cutty, finds a little in-between time for a quick little wave while he’s giving a lesson.

Brian Scott

This gal was getting a lesson too down the way. For being a somewhat of a beginner, I have to say she was charging it out there with how big and windy it was.

Brian Scott

Look in your rear view mirror dude!!!

Brian Scott

Colin speed lining it on one of those really long rights.

Brian Scott

Meanwhile Hayden going for the hail marry closeout crack off the top on the left.

Brian Scott

Take a good look at this pic… and then proceed to the next shot.

Brian Scott

Ok. What do you notice? If you guessed the rubber persuasion being worn by both gentlemen you would be correct. Now I can officially say it… it’s that time of year again. Burrrrrr!!!

Brian Scott

Sets stacking out the back. I kid you not, this set came out of nowhere and it had easily 20 waves in it.

Brian Scott

Here’s Mr. Hayden on maybe the 4th or 5th wave of that set. What do you think he’s planning on doing with all that speed….???

Brian Scott

How about a great big grab rail slam it on the breaks huge carving turn slash hook under the lip like you see in this 6 image sequence. Ooooffff and ya, he pulled it off - Baller status homie!

Brian Scott

Aside from the windy offshore air, there were some other kinds of airs going down.

Brian Scott

I kept a close eye on all the surfing action for 2 maybe 3 hours today, but was reluctant to see one barrel. I saw a few attempts, but I hoped this was going to possibly be my mystery barrel surfer of the day…

Brian Scott

RATS!! He hit the eject button too soon! Oh well…. there’s always tomorrow.

Brian Scott

Looking back at todays waves, fun beach vibe and all around good time at the playa… I have to say it was a great Sunday Funday!

Brian Scott

Hope this helped jump start your week. As always thanks for stopping by and hope you all have a great Monday mañana. Yewwwww ~
