Pauwela shows around 5ft 11s of leftover NW and that should be it for the day. Home guess for Hookipa is around head to head and a half with occasionally bigger sets and very clean with light Kona flow.

NW energy came down a bit in size and period and should continue to do so throughout the day, but it's nonetheless still pretty solid at the buoys. Home guess for Hookipa is double overhead plus and clean with no wind. Pipe contest live here.

No photos from yesterday, this is the usual Mr Bennetts at Uluwatu in Bali, a spot I use to go to in summer time before Covid and most importantly before foiling. No need to go there anymore as summer downwinding is plenty fun enough for me.

Just like yesterday, the XL stormy NW swell is going to make all spots on the north shore inaccessible with the exception of the sheltered ones. Home guess for Hookipa is around triple overhead and all over the place.

 Wind map at noon (one day old prediction). The other ones can be found here.
