south swell 久々のサーフィン

The Quicksilver Big Wave Contest in Memory of Eddie Aikau was cancelled due to the lack of consistency of swell, though more than 15,000 people gathered at Waimea Bay to look forward watching such a huge wave. It was decided to cancel it because "Eddie would not go".. Anyway, it's been a little while to go back into the water because of the typical winter minimal southerly swell. I enjoyed some chest-high waves at Point Panic yesterday.

~Eddie no go Waimea Bay 1/20/2011

サウスショア久しぶりの腰〜腹サイズのファンウェーブ。エディーアイカウは、波の大きさは良かったんだけど、セット間隔が３０〜４０分と長くとても勝負にならないから中止になった。一昨日の朝はワイメア湾に１万５千人もの観客が押し寄せたけど、開催者側は「エディーならこの程度の波は行かない」と判断して大会中止。
