Welcome to the Saturday surf report. This is Roberto “Lucha Libre” and Mateo “Pledge” bringing you the action from the Popoyo surf contest today. There was a lot of competition in the water today. We have a bunch of surfers competing for the win here. The waves were fun as well. It was running chest to shoulder high with some head high. Check out the action!

He had a lot of people getting their drink on going Matthew McConaughey style. The Upper left shot we got Baldo enjoying the presence of the Flor de Cana at the contest. The upper right photo you can see the Flor de Cana salesman passed out at eight am. Maybe he was not selling enough so for promoting he decided to partake himself. Bottom left we got “Pledge” up there taking in some beverage before his heat to help him advance. Nice strategy….. Finally we got some of our friends from Quebec who are loving it down here in Nicaragua.

The waves were fun today, but we were more excited about all the ladies on the beach today. Here is just a few of them who came out to support the surfers. Thanks ladies, you definitely made all boys want to surf harder.

Luis “La Baloy” Chamorro, the previous contest winner, was out there surfing super good. “La Baloy” and Rex “La Bestia” are racing neck and neck for the number one position on the Nicaragua national team. So he has his hands full for tomorrows’ heats.

Larry “Carita de Venado” Davila is shown he on his heat winning wave with a nice front side smack. He caught this wave right off the bat and didn’t even need another wave to advance. Although he did catch a few more which helped him win this heat.

The last shot of the day goes to our good friend Darwin “El Brujo” Jacamo had a great time today surfing with his Nicaraguan friends, progressing in both the Juniors and the Open division.
