We arrived to the beach in the dark searching for the biggest wave. \u00a0That biggest wave was outside of Waikiki again so that’s where we went. \u00a0I have the 2 girls their 6’4’s because that’s all they have. \u00a0I would have preferred them to have at least 9’6’s. \u00a0But we make no excuses and they don’t know the difference anyway. \u00a0Haha. \"\"<\/p>\n

We got out again and it was still HUGE! \u00a0Big barreling lefts that were similar to the power on the North Shore. \u00a0No way I would recommend anyone trying to ride these waves with a 6’4 but once again, they had no idea what was going on. \u00a0 \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

This big wave charger girl was out there again. \u00a0She had the right board which was a 9’6 so getting these were easy. \u00a0It was the 3 girls and me all morning long. \u00a0I got to ride a couple of these on my 6’5 so that made me pretty happy. \u00a0The late takeoffs and hanging on for dear life was an adrenaline rush. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

My girls were on 6’4’s which is way too small. \u00a0On top of that, I forgot to change their fins. \u00a0They were riding twin fins!!! \u00a0No wonder their board was spinning out at the bottom of the wave. \u00a0Haha. \u00a0I didn’t realize that until later in the session. \u00a0I was following Rocky as she caught a big set, made it to the bottom, and her board started to spin sidewards because of the fins. \u00a0I thought she was going to fall and the whole wave was going to pound her deep down. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

But she recovered and completed the ride. \u00a0She was so happy today! \u00a0Now she wants to order a 9’6 and ride the big sets. \u00a0We have a new big waver surfer girl! \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

We all caught our last wave together and this was the end of it. \u00a0The girls went in with the biggest smiles on their faces. \u00a0They want to do it again but I told them they might have to wait for another 10 years for a swell like this. \u00a0The swell was big, the direction was perfect, the tide was perfect, and winds were perfect. \u00a0It’s a once in a decade day and we got it for 2 days in a row. \u00a0Come tomorrow, this spot will be flat. \u00a0Embrace the memory and be ready for when the next one comes…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
