Nicaragua Surf Report for Friday, May 07, 2021

Brian Scott

Happy Friday Amigos!!! Wow, what a day of super fun, sick and epically rippable waves we had out there today! A lot of people too…. must have been at least 30+ people! That’s the most I’ve seen in over a year. This place actually felt like it was back to normal for a moment… however the consistency and the surfing level was top notch out there, so everyone had to be on their A - GAME, for sure!

Brian Scott

With waves coming in like this every few seconds, literally, there weren’t any lulls the entire time I was shooting. That would also explain how I reached 3,750 photos somewhere close to around the hour that I was shooting!

Out of the thirty plus heads I tried counting all up and down the many many peaks going off, there were a bunch of ladies out there killing it with the bro’s! Here’s Chris setting it up for a really nice left.

Rutciel always shining like a diamond out there in the glitter and gold!

Brian Scott

Not sure who this unknown chica was, but she was holding it down with all the other local ladies just as well!

Brian Scott

Lindsey too…. !!!

I bet everyone out there was super stoked before this place goes into lethal survival mode around the 15th (I think) the reports are saying. Its gonna get big… and then bigger and then really BIG! Gonna be some seriously sick photogenic happenings coming up soon!!!

Ricky getting his aqua legs and lungs ready for the next XXL swell. I think this one is going to be much bigger than the last one, so everyone have fun, but always remember the ocean ain’t no joke and know your limits!

Mystery Barrel surfers today were deep, I just needed to use a frame showing some board, so you knew I wasn’t lying that there was actually a person in there!

Brian Scott

We’re still a little ways off from that XL swell. But practicing at one of the BEST hollow waves in the area helps heaps for when those bombies will start to show up.

Brian Scott

Also nice to continue to work on the rail game before this place becomes 100% bus sized tubos, which Matt will for sure be out there catching. He’s got the season city all route pass for his buss rides!

Brian Scott

There were a lot of new comers out there in the water today. I sure hope they’ll all be around when that new swell arrives! These guys looked like they….. well, it’s obvious they all could surf really well, so I would love to see what they can do at this place when its maxing out!

Brian Scott

Kev just warming up. and I mean, not even breaking a sweat. It needs to be at least double overhead before he even starts getting that special tickle inside his body, the kind that people who excel in big waves get hat most of us average surfers begin to fear and sitting outside the lineup gives you a lump in your throat and often times, only gives you the nerves to make it out to catch one and be done! Nope, not Kev. He’s the complete opposite!

Brian Scott

I was really digging on the board this guy was riding. How he was riding it was even more impressive!!!

Brian Scott

Go BIG or go home… is that the saying??? Well, looks like this dude will still be here around the middle of the month (hopefully).

Brian Scott

Conditions today were pristine and really unexplainable without you really being here to see. It wasn’t crazy big or anything, but it was like, just that right, perfect size for everything!

Brian Scott

Barrels….

Brian Scott

Rail work and perfecting them turns.

 

Brian Scott

If there were an all around perfect size I think 90% of all of the people who surf in the world, would have said today was perfect! The other 10% surf all those other crazy mental places like Jaws, Nazaré, Mavs, The Outer Reef here in Nicaragua, etc.

Mr. Chis with his newest shred stick. I was bouncing when he was just arriving, but after I showed him my photo count, he was like “Yeah Dude, you better get home and get cracking on the editing of all those pics from today!” I had about quadruple the amount of photos just shown on todays report. Had some power outages and some delays, which is why I had to narrow it down drastically (sorry) it’s a Nica thing…. but I’ll post some other of the stuffs on the social media sites for you to peek at as well!!! Come on back by mañana to check out Chis’s report and see if tomorrow compares to todays madness of perfect waves. Hope to see you out there….. Yewwwww ~
