The waves have been pretty darn good this week in Hawaii. In fact I’ve never been here when it is not cranking – so I just think this is the norm. I arrived 1 week ago and we’ve had 3 chunky swells. The Banzai Pipeline has been 8 foot plus a few times since being here – even 10 + foot one day breaking way out on 2nd and 3rds. It’s truly an amazing wave…a ruthless, pounding, incredibly hollow wave. So many eat it out there – big time. The take off is tricky…but I think the crowds make it impossible. Needless to say, this joint is popular. Some real talent out there too – Dingo, John-John (always), one of the Gudaskis bros, Koa Rothman, Jamie-O (always too) and a hundred up and comings. Just sitting on the beach watching here is a real treat.
The weather back in Sydney looks good. The NE winds are up and you are hitting 26 degrees later today. South swell 3-4ft – I reckon Bondi would be super fun to surf! Hit it.
Have a great weekend, don’t forget out gallery is open all weekend.
