Mega Swell


Monster WNW swell pounding the north shore this weekend with another one coming next weekend.

Boys wanted to enjoy their last day of spring break by riding bike.

Always fun hanging with good friends in and out of the water. I've known David Shinbara since 5th grade.

Hook hand


Would u believe I got hooked in my hand? Yup I got a similar hook snag deep inside and barb went in. Thankfully Dr. Al pushed it through and was able to cut the barb off. Gotta be careful and glad it was a small hook.

Hanapaa!


Great day on the water with the Red Sea crew testing out new gaji lures. Found the birds and got a four banger and got lucky! Mahalo al and Jon for your help. Got dinner for this week!

Pipe Day


Woke up early knowing north was big so took the step up board.

Solid 8 ft with a few 10 ft bombs.

Crowd was intense and we decided to charge.

Got one solid backdoor wave today. Steep drop and made it before getting dragged over the reef.

Decided to call it a day and lick my wounds.

Time to do some ding repair.
