Nicaragua Surf Report for Saturday, May 25, 2019

Brian Scott

Happy Saturday Everyone! And what a day it was…!!! After shooting for almost 8 straight hours today, split into 3 different parts thoughout the day; and how incredible the surf conditions got from sun up after about 4 days of heavy rains and onshore winds, you’re in for a special treat with todays surf report! (*ed side note - my apologies in advance for the late report …. it was a marathon out there today & our Wifi went down due to the heavy rains) ENJOY ~

After arriving to the beach around 7AM, I was amazed to finally see the onshore mess was gone and the conditions went pretty much to glassy to light offshore.

Brian Scott

Mark stoked to finally see some light at the end of the tunnel of endless rain and onshore winds. Also a great thing since it was his last surf day of his trip!

Woody, also a friend and long time visiting surfer with Mark taking a solid chunky one on the inside bowl at the reef.

After watching my two amigos swap waves for a coupe hours after sun up. I panned my camera down to the beach break to see this! I figured after I wrapped up shooting with my buddies, I might as well go see what all the hype was down that way.

Brian Scott

Sure enough, it was CRAZY!!! Crazy barrels, crazy sandbars, crazy bebris in the water from all of the rainwater runoff… Ricky not dodging the barrel, but definitely trying to dodge a thousand little pieces of love that came all the way from Managua last night.

Some of the cleaner looking barrels looked a bit like this.

One of the other amigos (of the other two I was shooting earlier this morning at Pangas) is Kim, you can’t really see him, because he’s super slotted deep in this PC green room mini cavern. This also happens to be one of his favorite waves on the planet. Can you guess why???

Brian Scott

It sure didn’t look anything like this yesterday or the day before that or the day before that. Glad it’s somewhat back to normal.

Brian Scott

If you were out surfing today…. chances are VERY likely you got a sick barrel.

Brian Scott

Off course if you’re 7’2” those barrels need to be about 8 feet. Parker opting for the rail game since the surf was only about 4-6 feet today.

I wish I could show you this sequence of Lesther’s 77 image sequence of this wave from today. Here he is about midway after the take off and he proceeded to get covered up for a solid more 40 frames or so. Then he punted a huge air reverse at the end and stuck it. It was for sure a 10!!!!!

Seth getting comfy in his favorite place, with a couple of onlookers ready to get some of their own.

I guess you can call this round two of the days sessions. NOT BAD and a lot of photos to go through that’s for sure!

Brian Scott

There just wasn’t any way I was going to miss the afternoon session, so here’s how it looked after I came back after a little late lunch break.

Brian Scott

To say today was good would be an understatement.

Brian Scott

JJ was flipping out it was so GOOD! SIKKKKKKK air btw, buddy!!!!

Brian Scott

Andy was on fire out there this afternoon. So many people were on fire! I’ll be going back through todays photos for a couple days from now, for sure!

Brian Scott

Henderson putting everything into that bottom turn with hopes to get into the belly of that little beast!

Brian Scott

Here he is again, different wave, but maybe his 100th wave from today none-the-less.

Dario navigating and putting into perspective with a little bit of the size we had out there on the bigger sets. Also showing how unfiltered the water is right now. Hope everyone took a nice long hot shower after todays sessions!!!

My mystery barrel surfer of the day goes to this lucky surfer.

Brian Scott

Well, that’s about all I could squeeze in, since it was literally a marathon surf session of a day. It’s been raining again since the sun went down and it hans’t stoped since, but hopefully we’ll see the same if not even better conditions in the morning. Buenas noches ~
