Local time: 9.45hours

After almost a full week of great surf, the waves continue to hit Honolua Bay. Today the waves were significantly smaller than the last 2 days, but the crowds were still up. The sets were somewhat inconsistent so once a set came everybody was eager to get a wave. I surfed my little “Secret Spot” with 5 guys out, all friendly and relaxed, just no barrels.

Hu kärs?

The Bay: You never roam alone

Contest update O’Neil Worldcup at Sunset and the Giget Pro at Sunset

The swell all over was on the decline today. The sets at Sunset were probably somewhere in the 4-8feet range winds were blowing side-offshore.
The womens event went through the qualifications the next action we will see are the quarter finals. The girls showed a good performance, it will be interesting to see who advances to the semies. World Champ Stephanie Gilmore and Alana Blanchard, who won in Haleiwa are still in the race.

With the declning swell the mens round of 128 only went as far as 8 Heats to make room fort he girls in the afternoon. That much is sure, the winner of Haleiwa, Joel Centeio won his heat clear with 13 points.

At this time it is not clear if the contest continues tomorrow, the current buoy readings are at 8feet 9 seconds.

Not a good sign.
