i get to Bowls in the dark this morning. \u00a0i was watching the waves and saw some big sets. \u00a0looked a little smaller than yesterday and there were only 3 guys out. \u00a0lucky me! \u00a0 the Hawaii news is calling these waves 10-15′. \u00a0 some guys out where calling it 6-8′ Hawaiian. \u00a0next week some guys will probably say it was 10′ Hawaiian. \u00a0which ever way you look at it, it was big enough to scare most surfers away. \u00a0i’m almost 6′ tall so you can imagine how big this wave was. \u00a0my mistake was riding a board that was too long. \u00a0the take off was easier but pulling into the barrel was harder. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

if i had a smaller board, i could have put myself in better positions, and also slowed myself down. \u00a0but with a longer board, once the rail sets, it will shoot almost too fast out of the pocket. \u00a0even though i tried to slow down, i couldn’t. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

i still enjoyed the beautiful view though. \u00a0i haven’t been this excited about surfing in my entire life. \u00a0i wish it was like this everyday! \u00a0anyway, tomorrow expect the crowd to trickle back as the swell starts to drop. \u00a0one of the best Summers in Hawaii and we just got started!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
