Nicaragua Surf Report for Friday, March 26, 2021

Brian Scott

Happy TGIF folks! It was a fun day for waves around that midday mark. High tide and plenty of people to watch ripping it up made for a good day of surfing for a Friday report!

Brian Scott

I had gotten a message that the waves were starting to turn on… this wasn’t the call in guy, but you can tell this dude knew it was turning on very much so!

Brian Scott

There’s just something that uniquely draws about 99.9% of all surfers to just around the head high range of barrels.

Brian Scott

They’re fun for one thing, but they’re also not too crazy to make you work out there like your life depends on it.

Brian Scott

Thus is the reason, I believe that the Kelly Slater ranch wave size was very specifically chosen for its size.

Brian Scott

Haha, I could be completely wrong and sound like a total kook with that theory, but then again, what do you think about when you see waves of this size, shape and hollowness??

Brian Scott

Although it does look a little on the small side today, we are supposed to be getting some new bigger swell here soon!

Brian Scott

Thad’s stoked because he and his amigos just got in and timed their little strike mission perfectly for next weeks swell!

Brian Scott

Bigger (in terms of waves) for John = A greater factor of fun and a lot less beach checks from sunup to sundown for him and the small but dedicated super dawn patrol crew.

Brian Scott

Derek with his rail game on point today. Darn, I must say the photos really do give todays session a tad bit more allure than how good it actually was…..

Brian Scott

But I don’t photoshop any of my photos (besides a little color correction) so you know there were some really fun little nuggets out there for the hour that I was shooting.

Brian Scott

Next week and this same take off spot and shot will look similar but just add a few feet to it….. many feet to it, but it’ll still look super sick and FUN!

Brian Scott

Little trivia factoid. John Gillem used to be a real “Head & Shoulders” shampoo model back in the day! Jaja - if you got that joke, thanks! lol

Brian Scott

Time to get the feet in the wax and ready for some bigger stuff hopefully coming to our shores very soon!!!

Brian Scott

Might as well practice the pig-dogging position while its small too…. it’ll come in handy when it get’s well overhead!

Brian Scott

Dario doing a little “pipe-cleaning” before his evento de canto esta noche!

Brian Scott

Go ahead and cue Thin Lizzy’s “The Boys are Back in Town” song now, if you’re old enough to remember that epic jam of a song…… perfect for my amigos who just so happen to be back in town!!!  Yewwwwww boys ~
