Friday 9 12 25 morning call

Hookipa yesterday.


Mr. Bennetts' latest video from the Gorge also shows Kane De Wilde and Finn Spencer in the same run. You can skip the first 4 minutes (very small bumps), but from there on it's fantastic.

6am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion. South shore
Barbers

        , 13s, SSW 205º

Lanai

        , 14s, S 185º

Decent southerly energy at the buoys, but small waves on the cam. Check the Kihei webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.

The small NW swell I discussed yesterday didn't pick up much yesterday, but today should be noticeable on the north shore. Home guess for Hookipa is around chest to head high with a slow trend up (Surfline calls for 3ft 13s at sunset).

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