Surfers Riding on the Backs of Monsters, December 7, 2009






And photos of Waimea Bay by MICHAEL GOULDING, The Orange County Register:

 

They came from all over: veteran Australian surfer Tom Carroll, who severely injured his ankle while surfing at WaimeaBay.

High Surf at Shark's Cove, North Shore O'ahu

This is where I often go tide pooling, off of Pupukea.




A view of Shark's Cove, the same area seen when the video pans left. The size of people standing on the pool's outer rim give you a sense of scale. Bigger waves are expected tomorrow, with the High Surf Warning extended through Wednesday. Organizers are 90% sure that the Eddie Aikau Invitational will be held tomorrow.
