Brian Scott

Welcome back for the Tuesday surf report! Good news. . . we have some new swell energy in the water and it was a good old fashioned Nicaraguan barrel-fest for breakfast! Jump on in and check it out.

Some proper size coming in as everyone who woke and made their way to the playa, found people out in the lineup getting some of THIS!

However, todays thick lipped waves were super fast and very heavy. So a lot of people were disappearing left and right.

Some of the smaller in-between sets were nice and groomed with light offshores and didn’t make you surf in survival mode.

There were all age ranges out there today as well. Here, this unknown grom was killing it like a grown up.

Accept he actually pulled off the rabit in the hat trick out there…. in front of all the camera angles and of all the big guys making their way out.

The kid was putting on a clinic!

This was actually my favorite wave/sequence from this morning, just for it’s pure perfection without a single drop of water out of place.

Chris M. bagging this heaving left! Yeaaaaah buddy!!!!!!

My lens in only capable of showing a small parameter of the entire lineup - due to it’s long length, but here’s just one section of the morning rush hour traffic fully pulled back.

Brian Scott

Yeah, there were some hectic moments.

And with a juicy new swell, there’s always carnage.

Brian Scott

And believe it or not, with that earlier shot of the crowd, I saw plenty of waves go unridden too!

Brian Scott

Mostly because everyone was waiting patiently for these….!!!!

Here’s an even younger mini grom tackling the river mouth rights all morning. (be sure to check the IG page or my highlights - links are posted at the bottom, you gotta see this kids steeze!)

Jackson always stoked to be surfing, but especially stoked to be surfing when it’s overhead and firing!

Brian Scott

Mystery barrel surfers all morning long as that tide was quickly going out to sea.

Brian Scott

I imagine, probably right about now or when that tide bottomed out it comes back up to around medium-med high I bet there’s going to be some bangers out there!

As I made my way back to finish up I saw this dude from the beach club taking to air on this big closeout. Figured would be the perfect parting surf shot for todays super fun session!
