The WNW swell might have not been particularly big in Maui due to its direction, but check out the highlights from the HIC Pipe Pro yesterday. Imai and Ian Gentil got some awesome barrels and dominated their heats. Too bad there's no streaming, today should be pretty good too.

WNW swell is at the buoys, hard to tell how much we're getting of it. Home guess for Hookipa is for inconsistent head and a half sets.
