Totally stuffed now , surfed the Alley again today on the midmorning high tide only 4 suppers out , caught a couple of bombs from out past the point into Laceys.One of the best sessions ive had for ages , you had to be patient but when the sets come through a few where bombs.Nearly killed a stupid snorkller , he was out spearing amongst 200 surfers i took of on a good size wave and had a fair bit of speed up and his head pops up about 2 feet in front of me , i dont know how i managed to misss him , but if i collected , it would have taken his head off.
G'day Teatrea I nearly did the same thing in the Oahu Hennessey's Race
Next it was the Hennessey’s Race on the North Shore Turtle Bay to Waimea Bay 11kms. Nowhere near as good as Maliko Gulch on Maui but still fun (paddle power). It was so hectic at the start with 41 SUP’s & 143 Paddleboarders I gave everybody a 60metre head start just to avoid the massive wake! When I started I took off & mowed em down. Having some fun paddle battles with the competitors, some competitors said to me later “you wait until next year” I had to laugh. As I was approaching Waimea Bay this scuba diver appeared out of nowhere & I nearly took his head off, luckily the lifeguard was on a jet ski close by as I yelled out & pointed “mine field” he was quickly told to move.
