hahaha.
thanks gruntt. it was amazing. i have a shite load of photos i have to take care of. it's going to take me a while. :(
got lucky though. we wented a car on monday and drove around the island to the north shore, (sunset beach) and happened to come across the grand slam surfing tournament going on. 15-20 foot waves. unbelievable.
met a couple of the surfers after they shut down the event when the waves got to be too much across the street at this crappy pizza joint. funny dudes.

that pizza place was a dump (dirty as all hell) but i can't complain when i order a slice and it comes out bigger than the plate. so much for watching my weight.
i couldn't believe the waves at north shore. they were the size of large buses.

did you spend your $200??

you were surfing on the n. shore in the winter?... waves can hit 20 ft easy at that time. you're surf skills must be better than your biking.

i have pics of the guys surfing north shore. at least 15 feet.
the ones i surfed were on the shore of wikiki. the day i went out only a handfull were 5 footers, mostly kicked up by the cargo ships i think. but what do i know... i'm from chicago.
the day we were leaving a storm off shore kicked up some 5-6 footers on that same beach. wished i was out there but my unbroken body was thankful.

10-11 footers?... you must be a fast learner because that shit is huge... I know dudes who have been surfing many years who still find a wave that big challenging.
anyway... i just wanted to call your bullshit... glad you had a good time!

i was doing 10 and 11 in the last week of a 5 week vacation.
i have been wakeboarding for a while, and fucking around with no bindings on my board, wakeskating for a few years.
i was surfing every other day... sometimes every day.
- chz0
ok.

spearfishning was awesome too. nothing like catching your own dinner by swimming for it.
