I swear you could have put a semi truck inside the barrel easy with anotehr 8-10 foot bove that. Only a few people in the world are willing to take that risk and I aint one of them also Went to Kaui north shore at tunnels and looked at it on a big big day and said no way no how brudda Love Hawaii I am gonna buy a house there some day prolly in Kailua Lanikai area near the Moks. Love it love it. |
I want to go back in the winter and rent a house up there. I really want to see both Pipe and Waimea going off, I can hardly imagine it.
Even when both places aren't breaking, the currents are rigorous! It gave me that nervous tingle in my stomach......
My biggest day was El Porto a few years back. It was 10 to 12+ foot on the faces. I got a few great rides but I will never forget thinking I was going to drown when I made a bad decision on a drop (I hesitated). Then I recall thinking "there is no way out but surfing it in!" So scarey man!
I am fine now with head highs.
The place I photographed the surfers in this thread, that was great conditions man. Just east of Pipe and a deeper reef. It was gorgeous. I wish my knee was better man
