“Nicaragua is an amazing place. Warm water, waves of all variety and awesome people. The AST Camp has a few different locations down there and they showed us the ins and outs of every surf spot. We got bar-rels, long point breaks, beach breaks, you name it.”~ Matt Pagan

the story with wave in the desert.... well it is very is-solated and hard to get to. everything there is bat-tling you. the reef is extremly sharp and covered in barnacles and urchins, you want to go in a boat so you dont have to deal with getting in an out because it is a very difficult task even for some of the best surfers in the world. a lot of us lads up here are fisherman so we have the pleasure of seeing whats swimming around up there. that place is home to some of the biggest tiger sharks in the world. the boys see them on a regular basis at work and there have even been a few white pointer sightings around.

a few of the boys copped a whipping. my mates brother surfs up there quite a bit. about 3 months ago he came off on a bomb and broke his jaw in 2 places and woke up on the reef and didnt know what had happened. that day was the first day that he had been up there since the last accident. he broke 2 boards in the moring and was still froth-ing to get a few more. he got a really wide one that closed out on him and he got drilled. smashed in to the reef and knocked out cold and woke up on the reef again. he paddled back out in the line up blood pissing out if his head and looking a little dazed. we started talking to him and he was wiggin out. he had no recalection of breaking the 2 boards earlier and he didnt know how he got up there. he ended up getting 6 stitches in his head and a concusion

“I was lucky this day and didn’t get sucked over the falls. the desert is a wild place where any thing can happen and you have to be prepared for the worst. every time we go up there something dangerous happens.”
