Monday 9 27 21 morning call

No photos from yesterday. Next photo of my trip is from lake Sammamish in Seattle, my first time wake surfing and foiling. That is a 12 liters kiteboard, smallest board I've ever foiled on, and it had a remarkably direct feeling of connection to the foil.


4am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers
2.3ft @ 13s from 183° (S)

I went south yesterday and foiled on waist to occasionally chest high waves. Today is a lot smaller, but there's still gems like this empty one in the semi-dark. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.



North shore
Hanalei

2.5ft @ 9s from 345° (NNW)
2.2ft @ 11s from 337° (NNW)

Waimea
3ft @ 11s from 334° (NNW)

Kaneohe Bay

3.5ft @ 6s from 70° (ENE)
3.3ft @ 8s from 64° (ENE)

NW swell trickling down and now coming from the NNW. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to head high.

Forecast of Pauwela from this PACIOOS page.
