Tuesday 7 15 26 morning call

The new F-One Frigate parawing arrived. Yesterday I let a few expert parawingers try it and they all said it's very good. I have a couple of demos in the car and I'll be at the circle at Lowers this morning, come see me if you know how to parawing and want to try it.
We only received a 3.0 and a 3.5 for retail at Hi-Tech in this first small shipment.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore

Small long period southerly energy at the buoys and not much on the cam. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

The out of season NW swell is so tiny at the buoys it can hardly be called a swell. Home guess for Hookipa is around waist high with occasional bigger sets of mostly easterly windswell.

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