SURF OBSERVATIONS
Superman -- 6/9/07
Me, launching
Date: June 9, 2007
Time: 0600--0930
Spot(s): Sandys
Conditions: Clear skies, light winds
Swell: Tradewind swell
Surf: 1-3' Haw'n
Bodyboarded Sandys early. Typical windswell stuff, but there were some nuggets. My friend caught me mid-flight (mid-wipeout) on a few. Just got this one shot below.
Afterwards went to Bowls to shoot a little of the HASA State Amateur Surfing Championships. Halfway out the Ala Wai channel, I realized my housing sprung a leak--brackish water halfway up the housing. Frack!
Rinsed everything off in fresh water, and praying, but I think it is toast. Obviously no pics from the contest.
Aloha from Paradise,
