Tuesday 3 31 26 morning call

West side yesterday.


Since the contest at Hookipa was called off, all the pros showed up mid morning and the spot got as crowded as I've ever seen it. Today it should be on instead. Streaming and heat order here, youtube streaming here.

Medium/short period northerly energy continues at the buoys. Home guess for Hookipa is around head and a half to double. Plenty waves in the harbor too.
