This is a 20 minutes uncut footage of a parawing downwind run. Good headphones strongly recommended, as the music is a big part of it.

      • 0.9ft
        , 25s, SSW 200º
Plenty southerly energy of different periods including a 25s reading from a new very long period swell that Surfline predicts to reach 2ft 23s at sunset. It comes from the mostly angular spreading fetch that happened on July 16 through 19 (maps below).

Plenty waves on the cam, although mostly from the already existing 14s south swell. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

Sunday 7 19 26 morning call

Hookipa yesterday.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore
Barbers
      • 2.3ft
        , 14s, S 190º

      • 0.8ft
        , 20s, S 180º
Good amount of 14s energy at Barbers, together with a 20s reading that indicates the rising of a new swell that Surfline predicts to reach 2.3ft 18s at sunset and last quite a few days. It comes from the fetch in the maps of July 11 through 14 below.
