are you ready?!
went up today to scout things out. ended up catwalking the beach trying to decide if i should do a virgin attempt at avalanche or get pummelled at haleiwa. for the record haleiwa was pretty sick today with the few guys i saw paddle out generally come back in after a short time. my guess was 6-8ft with a strong current and major streetsweeper sets. ended up at lanis and paddled out and practiced my duckdiving. our spot to the west started to shape up and i felt it beckoning. nobody around even at lanis and saw at least four buzzcutted people being jerked out in the rip we are all familiar with. paddled out really just to see how i'd feel out there in stormy conditions and waves lurking everywhere. pretty much me and michael ho were the only out.
