Nicaragua Surf Report for Tuesday, June 12, 2018

Brian Scott

Guten Tag! Hello to all of our alemán fans out there and everyone else who’s chiming in for todays surf report. We had some super fun waves with light winds and an even lighter crowd, so don’t be shy and come take a look at todays goodies!

Brian Scott

What little peeps that did show up for todays waves came through the jungle to see this waiting for them!

Clean ,semi glassy conditions with nice light and subtle offshore winds blowing in the late morning.

Today was a good day to be out at the playa for sure.

It was also a great day to work on the three staples of surfing.

The air game out there today was pretty solid.

DJ, who’s also a fellow photographer is leaving pretty soon, so he’s getting in as much surf as he can. I’m looking forward to my day off so I can get out there too. Looks super fun!

Brian Scott

Kevin’s airs go from being almost 10 feet above the lip to 50K views on surfline’s sick rodeo flips to even these little inside mini punts. It’s safe to say he’s a well rounded aerialist, among his many other talents out here.

The second department that was being well take care of out there today was the tubos, salt mines, green room… there are many names surfers have given the term of getting shacked over the years; but it’s all the same. Right?

Brian Scott

Land Barrel shots, water barrel shots, not so much the same, but both look cool none the less.

Brian Scott

So be honest, how often does your home-break look like this?  We’ll just say it looks like this quite often.

Brian Scott

So the last area of focus today was obviously the rail game.

And the guys that were out were definitely not disappointing.

Zac with his signature hack attack.

This unknown visitor, throwing some serious buckets.

The water is so warm and nice right now. Can’t believe it’s already almost mid June. Feels like end of the season practically with how much rain we’ve already gotten, that and the conditions are very similar to Augusts/September right now; which is my favorite time of year here btw.

Brian Scott

A-Frames with nice lefts and rights served up with minimal people out… feels like 2008.

Brian Scott

There’s a little stigma with being a surfer here and enjoying the conditions while the country is unrest for political reason right now. But the fact of the matter is a lot of the local people here live and some survive on tourism, alone. Unfortunately as foreigners, we cannot do anything or get involved politically because it is illegal, but by coming here and buying things from the local people and helping to continue to give them work will still continue to stimulate the economy.  So if you like to surf and are on the fence about coming to Nicaragua, this is just some food for thought.

Well there you have it folks. Hope you enjoyed the Tuesday surf report. Hope to see you back here mañana. Chao for now ~
