Thursday 11 29 18 morning call

A shortboard session for me yesterday. Below is a two photos sequence of this ridiculously high double grab back flip whatever you call it aerial by Matt Meola.


Didn't land it, but almost.


Earlier Jimmie Hepp shot the windsurfers, the result is this gallery.


4am significant buoy readings
North shore
NW001
2.3ft @ 12s from 293° (WNW)

Hanalei
3.5ft @ 12s from 308° (WNW)

Waimea
3ft @ 13s from 320° (NW)
2.3ft @ 11s from 324° (NW)

Pauwela
4.6ft @ 13s from 319° (NW)
4.3ft @ 8s from 78° (ENE)
3.2ft @ 7s from 72° (ENE)
 
All buoys still trending down from the giant swell, today it should be mostly head high to occasionally overhead at Hookipa (will report soon) and tomorrow even smaller. Great wind conditions all morning though.
 
South shore should be flat.
 
Wind map at noon.
 
North Pacific has many fetches, but none well oriented towards us. That has been the case the last couple of day and it will reflect in a relatively small day tomorrow. Then the low close to us will send us a swell on Saturday, the size of which depends on how the fetch unfolds. Models agree for an extra large swell Wednesday/Thursday next week.
 
Nothing from the south.
 
Morning sky.
