God blessed Nicaragua once again.  Sick conditions for day 4 of the ISA world junior championship at Playa Jiquiliste.  Head high waves, straight offshore winds and warm water.  What else can you ask for?  Check out the lineup!

In the first heats of the day we had our boys Oscar Espinoza and Jackson Obando doing their best to keep Nicaragua on top.  Oscar worked pretty hard in his repechage heat but he couldn't find better waves to get some nice scores.  Unfortunately he got third and now he's officially out.  We are very proud of this kid for having such a good participation in this world event, first time in his life.  Well done fella!

Meanwhile down the beach, birthday man was ripping as hard as he could to advance to the quater finals in the 16's under division.  He was in second place with 25 seconds remaining but Leonardo Floravant from Italy had a sick last wave that took him into the second place.  Now Jackson is ready for his repechage heat tomorrow.  Hopefully no the last one for Nicaragua.  You got this Jackson, come on!

Holding SSW groundswell with some more medium sized surf for the top SSW facing breaks for tomorrow, so Playa Santana should be running about 3-5 feets,  winds blowing about 8-10 knots offshore and the tide will be low right about 11:50 am.  Conditions looking great for tomorrow so if you are around stop by and check it out!   Lucha Libre out.
