Wednesday 9 22 21 morning call

Yesterday morning at the harbor master paddler Jeremy Riggs had a group of disciples try a bunch of different boards and foils to achieve one of the most difficult goals of paddling with a foilboard: flat water take-offs. So difficult that Tomoko was the only one able to take off in this one instance.


Hookipa had overhead sets in the afternoon.



4am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Barbers
2.3ft @ 17s from 189° (S)

Nice long period energy reading at Barbers, check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.


North shore
NW101
4.2ft @ 13s from 1° (N)

Hanalei
5.3ft @ 13s from 321° (NW)

Waimea
4.1ft @ 14s from 331° (NNW)

Kaneohe Bay
4.6ft @ 6s from 70° (ENE)

First NW swell of the season will peak today. Home guess for Hookipa is head to head and a half.
