Entry 340 - Last Session in Maui for 2016

Entry 336 - Dawn Patrol in Maui


I figured out years ago that it's best to rent a board around 10AM and keep it for 24hrs. That way you can get 2 session in for the price of one. That's exactly what I did too. Woke up early this morning and headed out for dawn patrol. It was a lot more glassy than yesterday and the sets were a little bigger as well. There's a hurricane on the way too - might have a lot to do with that.

Entry 335 - 1st Session in Maui


Well, first session in Maui at the Breakwater and it was everything I expected it always has been - warm water, consistent sets, and beautiful scenery. Pretty much all lefts - 90% of the time. No rights for me today. Started using Glassy Pro too since SurfExplorer is just too inconsistent.

Entry 334 - Pre-Maui Surf


Last session before we head to Maui for 2 weeks! Overcast and bumpy this morning but the water was really nice. Caught my fair share before heading into work for a short meeting and then home to pack. Looking forward to the warm waters of Hawaii.

Entry 333 - Always Better Yesterday... Sometimes


Yeah, not as good as Monday but still fun. Breeze was picking up by the time I got out and it was a little colder for trunks on the paddle out but once I got warmed up, it was nice to be in a rashguard and trunks. Nothing to awesome today except for a nice right that I was able to ride and and crouch down to see if I could get into the pocket. No luck but still fun.

Gave Jason a 10/10 for a nice dismount off his board when he just couldn't make the wave.

Entry 332 - Trunks All In


A beautiful Monday and a pumping, fun swell with peaks up and down the beach. There was a lot of water today but if you could paddle through it and get something, the shape was awesome - steep but not walled. No barrel for me but still a lot of fun trying!

Entry 331 - Back on the Horse


Saturday look pretty bad from the cameras but today looked better so I headed out to find some surf. I was pleasantly surprised. While the lulls were long and the shape only so-so, it was still a lot of fun!

On the GoPro front, not impressed with the perspective I get from the mouth mount for the GoPro. Better with the surfboard mount or wrist mount.

Entry 330 - End of Perfect Week


Nope, didn't make it out for an 8th day straight. July 4th just didn't look good in the water and, from what I heard, I was right to stay away. Not much swell and crowded. Today was a good day though. Good size, warm water.
