We've never had a contest with a good swell in the water before, this time we do. The news are that Machete pt was going off with this swell and it wasn't part of the competition. We think next time we have a contest if we have swell we can take advantage of this wave and make it part of the big event.

Yesterday the big gorillas were packing the trush up all day long on the beach. Today they had the day off and decided to paddle out and catch a couple of wave. Who said that gorillas can not surf?

The day was getting hotter and hotter and everybody was feeling it. Tom "El Viejo Pelon" Eberly was one of them and was drinking some beers and was supporting his boys "El Mope" and "La Betia" until the finals. Here he is yelling NSR for first time of his life. By the way he was so excited because 3 of the finalist were riding Eberly Surfboard and he said that they made it to the finals because they were riding surfboard shaped by him.

But "La Baloy" was out there doing his thing and protecting his last tittle at Maderas. We think all the work he did count at the end because he was surfing pretty well every single heat making some killer moves like this layback.

The big surprise of the contest was this little kid from Astillero named Joel "El Capuyito" Chavez. He's only 11 years old and made it to the junior final with maneuvers like this one against "La Bestia" Calderon from San Juan del Sur, "El Brujo" Jacamo from Limon and Cesar "El Enamo" Amador from Popoyo. We think there is a good future for this little kid into the surf competitions in nicaragua.

So far young Rex "La Bestia" keeps the tittle into one of the tight heats of the day in the junior finals against Cesar Amador from Popoyo who got the second place, Joel "El Capullito" Chavez getting third place and Darwin "El Brujo" with the fourth place.
