Wednesday 7 15 18 morning call

A shortboard and a SUP foiling session for me yesterday.

While the waves are tapering down on the south shore, the photos from Sunday/Monday are being uploaded on the social media. Here's a dream foiling wave for Archie Kalepa. Photo by Tomoko.


Wailea side also got action, here's a couple of solid double over headers. Photos by FishBowlDiaries, plenty more in this album.




3am significant buoy readings

Sizes and periods tapering down as predicted, today it might be knee to occasionally waist high. I'll report at one point.
 
North shore
Pauwela
5.2ft @ 9s from 75° (ENE)
 
Windswell up to 9s, Hookipa and the east facing shores will have waves.
 
Wind map at noon.

I only circled the windswell fetch in the North Pacific, because I don't think the other small ones in the map on the right will manage to send us anything: too far/small/weak.
 
South Pacific has a tiny fetch E of New Zealand.
 
Morning sky.
