No photos from yesterday, this amazing picture was posted by OneMoreFoto.


I'm sure most of you guys have seen the clip of Kai and Ridge in the barrel together at Jaws. This video was just posted on Kai's Youtube channel.


6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Lanai

    , 9s, S 175º

Barbers

    , 8s, S 180º

Very small southerly windswell at the buoys. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

North shore

  • 6ft
    , 14s, NW 315º
  • 5.9ft
    , 11s, NW 310º

Moderate NW energy continues at the buoys. Home guess for Hookipa is around head and a half to double and once again clean thanks to yet another windless day.
