btw:
Looking further at Wetsand site. It has wind forcast for regional areas as well as swell. Don't know how acurate it is, but kind of nice to have swell forcast & wind on the same page. 1 stop shop
Wonder why the swell seems to move W to E around the globe, or am I reading the movement wrong ?

Update for you paddle board riders out there... Nice big waves at Sunset Beach on the 28th for the start of the World Cup Round II of the Triple Crown. Check out these highlights: http://wetsand.com/videos/v/20081129/o_neill_world_cup_of_surfing___day_5_highlights-6140.html;jsessionid=BA7848733944CFE9C13D0F19E6FEF9A7g
Hey Board rider, how many times overhead would these waves be for me? Not sure I know how to count that high…
We kited at Lanikai (East side) today in between squalls. Aloha, SL8r

Little SL8r is crashed out so I thought I would post an update.
Trades have given way to a cold front coming in from the north west so kiting has been limited to some sketchy squall chasing. The good news is the swell is gona be BIG tomorrow. Big enough for the EDDIE AIKAU Event??? Hopefully…
OAHU- HIGH SURF WARNING NORTH AND WEST SHORES FOR RISING SURF: Surf along north facing shores will increase rapidly, reaching heights of 22 to 30 feet by sunrise Tuesday and continue through the day.
Still trying to decide if we want to go watch the surfing on the north shore or find some smaller waves for us to surf on the south...
I’ve had my hands full chasing the little guy around so haven’t snapped as many pictures of the action around the island as I would have liked. Here are a few more. Sorry the picture quality isn’t great as we only brought the HD camcorder which shoots 3MB stills. Video quality is awesome though…
Later says Slater…

Nice pictures with the HD cam Dano.
I'll bet the video footage is great.
