I will be arriving back from Hawaii that morning. After a nap, I think I will be ready to join you guys at WBL. I can't wait to hit the snow for the first time this season!

No wind today, so I was up at Pipeline on the north shore of Oahu for high surf warnings. Amazing to watch those guys drop down a 20-25ft. face into a seemingly endless stand-up barrel. I will post photos once that part of site is back up. Had some awesome sessions at Kailua Bay. I ran into Gary from Eagan, a WBL local, at Kailua last Friday. Small world.

We had a nice session @ Mahto yesterday. Terry was back from Milly w/ his son. Thanks for helping straighten out the Husky's leash, T! Mike B,
Avery, Si , Radke, and Kurt all showed. It was super light wind cruizing, but the 11.3 held its own in all but dead calm. Jason thought the Husky looked exactly like a Psycho. I'll have to ask Winter if he concurs. We didn't have 30' wave faces, but I laughed when I tried to pop off a pres-
sure ridge. I think I was up 6" or more! :roll: JN

I'll be heading out there hopefully with Si and Travis. Compared to current temperatures it might even be warm enough to bring a swim suit. :lol:
