Hookipa yesterday afternoon. Photo by Jimmie Hepp from this album.
After a lovely wingfoil session, I was chatting with my friend Randy when I got a report of good wind conditions in Kihei. I went home to get my Foil Drive and off we went for a delightful downwind run. This is the short video I made of it.
6-7am Surfline
significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers is mostly reading NW wrap these days and can't be
used to detect small southerly energy. Check the Lahaina
and Kihei webcam if interested, for size,
conditions and consistency.
North shore
NW101
8.4ft @ 13s from 309° (WNW)
3.7ft @ 10s from 332° (NNW)
Hanalei
5.9ft @ 13s from 310° (WNW)
3.9ft @ 10s from 41° (NE)
3.5ft @ 11s from 333° (NNW)
Waimea
6.5ft @ 13s from 311° (NW)
1.6ft @ 11s from 323° (NW)
Hilo
6.4ft @ 9s from 74° (ENE)
WNW energy continues relentless at the buoys. Home guess for Hookipa for head and a half.
