Wednesday 7 22 26 morning call

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.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore
Barbers
      • 2.3ft
        , 14s, S 185º
      • 2.4ft
        , 11s, SSW 195º
      • 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.

North shore
