Well Paul, I am not going to be surprised if we realize we have run into each other at some point. We have overlapped or closely so many times since the 1970s , Oahu, New Zealand, Kauai.
Lots of the time spent in Whangerei was doing a rebuild on our boat Tevake. See below. So not a lot of time for surfing then.
Funny Brian and Caverly live 1/2 mile from me. That is looking like more than rash that Keala is sporting, ouch! Did you see some of the bombs she rode, and those that munched her? WOW! Is your Brewer gun at Brian's house? Hey, it has cured long enough, Bro.
We just had our first north swell of the season today. Maybe time to head this way this year. Sounds like you about wore out the slopes last year. I like the pic of the hill side with all the tracks, do you have to hike back up the hill?
Next time you find yourself heading this way, give me a shout. We can check out some near by back roads in the SC.
Baz thanks for posting the vid. I was mesmerized watching the event for days. Fantastic conditions. I've spent quite a bit of time in Tahiti, but not looking for any of that size.
Cheers Richard
