Thursday 5 12 22 morning call

Hookipa yesterday.


Been doing two downwind runs a day this week. The Foil Drive assisted ones are new and offer tons of things to discover, but they're also hard work. The winging ones are just pure fun.

5am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.

South shore
Barbers

1.7ft at 11s SSW 195º
0.7ft at 14s S 180º

Very small southerly energy at Barbers. Check the Lahaina and Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.


North shore
Waimea
1.6ft @ 10s from 326° (NW)

Mokapu

5.6ft @ 8s from 72° (ENE)
4.5ft @ 7s from 70° (ENE)

Mostly windswell at the buoys. Home guess for Hookipa is for waist to chest high.


Wind map at noon. The other ones can be found here.
