I did 3 months in sticky Nici....it was awesome and got the barrel of my life. No crowd no photographer...just a few chilled people watching..so epic...and those thunderstorms are crazy wild.
That's how I felt about Costa Rice when I visited way back in 2004. We rarely surfed with other people. Even with a semi-crowd at Playa Negra, I was the only one going left. Those afternoon and night-time storms were epic.
What an awesome video I just loved it surfing is focus so much on the biggest and most dangerous waves surfing has always Ben about finding fun waves enjoying them with your best surfing friends and it looks like you have a great bunch of friends and you're most definitely having fun much Aloha to all of you!
Have you ever run into a friend of mine the themed photographer Filmmaker Tony Roberts he lives between Nicaragua and Dominican Republic. Great guy great Surfer we used to skate and surf in Santa Cruz in the mid to late 80s. I was just curious because it seems like you two would hit it off
Love this vid, Kale! For an intermediate surfer (max has been 2-3ft overhead), where would you recommend for an Oct + Nov surf trip? Indonesia (Bali + Ments) or Central America (Nicaragua + Costa Rica)?
Nice one I have 20days holiday coming up in January so far think its going to be Nica or Costa still didn't decide. I did Puerto Rico last year was supper fun but didn't have much luck with swell was maybe 4 days of over head rest was 2ft slob.
early september swell was heavy / then i think what was it??? last week swell was pretty wild too.. not much to work with at the beach break south of nica but yeah, always important to blend the anthropology with the surf
it's hilarious how vloggers and surfline and all this internet crap just begging people to clog all these places... SMH you gettin paid yet bro?? hahahha btw I been surfing there since 2004 lol and got buddies since 96'
Hi man, Beacuse this is one of ur older videos ubmight not eaven see this but here goes. Im on my last year of school and when i finish i want to do a gap year before i go to uni and im realy considering the option of going to nicaragua. Would u mind telling me ur whereabouts in this video?, beacause id like to go somewhere with good waves nearby and u obviously found one. Or do u have any sugestions for a certain regeion with consistent good waves close by ( meaning max 1 hour drive) during the fall and Winter?
It's the rainy season now, so much less crowded. Just got back from a week in Costa Rica. Got to love the warm water, and empty beaches. We surfed 3 different beaches on the last day. Nicaragua looks amazing.
It is not wrong but some people, particularly advanced surfers/pros, think it is funny or a bit uncool to claim (celebrate) a wave after you have surfed it. Sometimes they can't help claiming so people make fun of them for it. It is light hearted joking, nothing serious.
He was falling in the whitewash after his wave and his hands went up for balance…. So it kinda looked like a celebration. His crew was just taking the piss
