Me alone in 1 ft dribble that was forecasted to be offshore But at least my toes are getting closer to the end of the nose

Perfect little knee to waist high runners today. Heaps of fun

Wave of the week on Coastalwatch is worth a look... Michael Chapple charging on a little foam board...

http://www.coastalwatch.com/videos/14334/video-watch-this-legend-weave-a-6-foot-pit-on-a-4-6-fluoro-pink-foamie

Hahahaha that was gold....reminds me of my Uncle who was a very very sharp surfer back in the day..when he was pushing 50 he decided to start surfing again and started riding those blue cloth covered foamies with the plastic fin....he used to smoke us in good waves up to double overhead on those things great noserider and in amazing in the barrel...I'm talking heavy offshore reefs here not kiddie beach breaks...only problem was he would have to take 5 of them for a one week trip as every time one got hit by a lip or he pulled out over the back of the wave and got a bit of air underneath they would snap

More Maui pics as requested


The famous Honolua Bay in off season snorkel mode






Surf was fun, nothing epic, these two shots were standard. I did not go as a specific surf trip, but got in the water twice a day





Locals were really friendly, if you went out smiling and gave a good morning. I wasn't going to tell him to wear a Leggie



This was a really famous Brand like a Brewer, but can't remember sorry



About on third of the Hi-Tech surf shop




This guy ripped, said he has competed at Noosa

thanks for the pics looks like a nice place,,some cool toys in that shop

Here is another, but was a bit blurry. This is the place to hire gear, they have the latest stuff, not old clunkers

Today was just like yesterday . Waist hight peaks and clean and the sun was out.

Nice pics above, last page included...surf was surprisingly good today. I've had the wrong board the last 2 days. Should have been on the log yesterday & SB today. Usually take both down, but I've been so sure on what to expect & been totally wrong both times lol

Bit of a small left peeler with a stiff offshore this morning with no one out. But the idea of putting up a couple of extra surboard racks in the garage & some shelving in the shed excites me more today. There was about 15 groms frothing along the beach footpath headed for a big hill to ride down as I was leaving which made me smile

Tiny here today and its southwest which puts my local out of the picture. Time to dust off the blackfish gear and hopefully get a feed. Nice pics Ted. Not a lot of sand on the beach.

Sometimes you forget how nice this town is on days like today

How's the lack of sand on the beach.

If you ever need a board just let me know.

out testing a 666 this afternoon and im booking myself for some morning action

It's pretty much shut down today. Howling southerlies. Should be some swell for the next few days though.

Stoked, now I can just flip my LB's straight onto the roof of the car without having to try & navigate them out of the corner
& knocking them on walls/ceiling/other boards

Love the yellow whalebone, what size is it??

Its a good board, just got a couple of big fin slices in it at the moment. I'm making sure its totally dryed out before I fix it, should be good to go by spring. Its 9'3

Thanks SP for kind offer. Was just a very quick visit for a meeting. Nice day to have a look at the place again. Nice to see the walk way on raises platforms linking downtown to Bar Beach is now finished. Looks epic.
