Nicaragua Surf Report for Wednesday, December 06, 2017

Javier Baldovinos

Hello everyone, I hope everyone had a great Wednesday just as the one we had here at Santana. Offshore winds, chest to head high hollow waves which means a lot of barrels. Check it out!

The rights were at its best today. Almost every wave looked like this... clean, glassy and hollow.

Etienne was having a great time catching the long, hollow rights. Look at him under that beauty!

The water is starting to get a little bit chill so don’t get surprised if you see in the next couple of weeks/months surfers wearing spring suits or even full wetsuits.

As a really good beach break, there is not only good rights (which are usually not that great here) but the lefts, especially on the northern part of the beach, were awesome… this guy had the barrel of the day (in my humble opinion).

This is the guy coming out of the barrel of the day. Can you tell he is about to float away to heaven right there? Pure stoked!

Life is beautiful in Nicaragua! Or how Etienne would say it… “La vie est belle au Nicaragua!” (thanks google!)

Elyin “El Pro” Guzmán was having a blast on the rights too. Here he is showing off his skills while promoting his local shaper GA Surfboards.

The lefts were not that hollow as the rights today, which only meant one thing… more turns and big curtains going behind the waves.

And Rayito is good at that, throwing buckets of water on every turn.

This is one of the few left barrels of the afternoon. It got me by surprise because I was focused on the rights.

Look at the sunset colors in the sky in combination with the light green room on that right.

Another wave, another barrel. A friend from Managua always jokes with me saying that “must be boring seeing (and doing) the same thing every day living at the beach”… and I always answered the same “yes, it is just like the afternoon traffic in the city, always the same every day”

This guy was ripping today, bodysurfing the waves. It’s super fun to watch someone having fun.

Javier Baldovinos

What about this guy? Big smile, tongue out and in cruise control.

Javier Baldovinos

The waves will get a little bit smaller tomorrow but I’m pretty sure it will still be good. See you around!
