Wednesday 5 13 20 morning call

I'm pretty baffled that with so many options involving waves, these days I prefer to wing foil in the harbor. For sure it's the newity factor and the figuring out of things, but it's also the pleasure of a discipline where transitions that can be done as smooth as silk. I'm not only becoming a "trans-kiter", but I might also become a freestyler!

4am significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers

2.1ft @ 13s from 307° (WNW)

0.5ft @ 20s from 204° (SSW)

Lanai

1.4ft @ 13s from 221° (SW)

0.5ft @ 20s from 208° (SSW)

Small 13s southerly energy at the buoys with a hint of 20s energy. This last one will be extremely inconsistent. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

3.5ft @ 13s from 324° (NW)

Hanalei
3ft @ 13s from 315° (NW)

Waimea

2.4ft @ 9s from 17° (NNE)

2.3ft @ 7s from 49° (NE)

1.2ft @ 11s from 349° (NNW)

The predicted modest NW swell is at the buoys. Hookipa will probably be head high plus. Beach report later.
