\"\"<\/p>\n

After surfing the outside at Waimea Bay, we came more to the inside to catch a few waves. \u00a0I told Roy this is a game of dodgeball. \u00a0We wait in the inside but when the big sets start to break on the outside, we paddle our fastest to the channel to get away. \u00a0It was pretty fun dodging those big waves. \u00a0But when the inside waves came, it was so beautiful! \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

And you can actually do big turns. \u00a0I’m still impressed by Roy’s surfing level and how he easily connected to that magical wave. \"\"<\/p>\n

When you paddle for a wave, you better catch it. \u00a0Why? \u00a0Because if you miss it, there could be a bigger one behind. \u00a0And that bigger one will smash you. \u00a0So as you can see, I’m paddling my hardest and I wasn’t going to miss it no matter what! \u00a0Haha. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

The inside waves were half the size of the outside waves. \u00a0This inside one is way overhead so imagine how big the outside sets were. \u00a0My 7’4 was feeling small. \"\"<\/p>\n

It was a fun and magical day. \u00a0Now I want to surf a much bigger wave! \u00a0Anyone want to go with me on the next swell? \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

The amount of water moving in the bay is crazy. \u00a0You can be paddling your fastest forward but the surge will make you go backwards. \u00a0You can feel the power and it’s something you truly respect. \u00a0This spot is for advanced\/experts only.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
