We'd like to give a big NSR welcome to our newest intern Andrew Mercier.  Andrew hails from Maryland and is currently a film student at Flagler College in St. Augustine, FL.  Not only is Andrew going to be spending his summer surfing his brains out and getting killer footage for NSR - he's going to receive 6 credits towards graduation in the process!  What?!!!!  That's sick, right?  NSR now has a legitimate internship program that earns you school credit.

Right off the plane and he already landed a big Dorado and caught sick waves at an undisclosed location.  Does he look stoked?  Stay tuned to NSR for Andrew's video footage which is planned to air on Sunday's.

Good to have you down my friend!

What's up everyone!  Eric here with a surf report from the more northern Nicaraguan coast.  Before we went out to the beach this morning we went to the Santa Maria elementary school to drop off all of the donations that have come through.  School had already started and we didn't want to interrupt all the kids so we made it a quick stop.

We want to send out a BIG thanks to everybody who donated supplies for this school!  They will no doubt be put to good use here.  Check out this table full of good stuff we had!

After unloading our box of shcool supplies, it is now back in the surf shop and very empty.  Anybody coming down here who would like to make a donation, it would be very much appreciated.  Thanks again to everybody who helped out in any way!

Moving on to the waves this a.m.  They were pumping!  Solid sets coming in at around head high with some overhead sets coming through.  The wind was dead calm for awhile, making for some super clean conditions.  Check it!

It was a good show from the beach.  Every set that came through there was somebody charging!  That's a boogie boarder who snagged this nice left.

It seemed like Dana was on the bigger wave of every set.  Here is taking the highline on this one.  He walked in from a beach to the south, brought too small of a board and no leash, he was still pulling in on everything he could!

When in a spot like this, it's time to make a critical decision..  Go big and pull in, or wimp out and run.  Looks like this guy is going for it!!

Hi folks, this is Lucha Libre throwing a couple shots in from San Juan del Sur.  The waves were super fun this morning and there was a lot of people having a good time.  It was head high on sets with nice offshore winds and the water was nice.  Check it out!!!
