Thursday 1 11 24 morning call

Hookipa yesterday was excellent again thanks to the light kona.

Seems like a huge aerial on the first wave, but it was on the wave at the back.

The reason why it was so good.

No southerly energy at Barbers, but there's still kona windswell in the water. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

Short to medium period NW swell continues pretty solid at the buoys. Home guess for Hookipa is around head and a half to double overhead and still kona. Eastern exposures still fun.
