Much bigger than I had expected. Windy 1-2 with 3s (maybe 4s?).

BTW

It's much better than yesterday (which speaks more to how bad it was yesterday than to anything else). Let's call it 1-2 and weak with light to moderate trades.

Stoked

My best showing so far. Open: repo, 2nd, advance; finals, 3rd. Senior: finals, 1st.

That's the only time I've won any division. And 3rd is my highest finish ever in the Open. So I'm happy.

Satisfied

So the event was supposed to be at Tracks, but they moved it to Diamond Head. I was expecting flatness, but it's actually slightly bigger today, but still very small.

In the Open, I placed 2nd in my first-round heat and advanced. For the Senior, I placed 1st and advanced. Both divisions will be continued tomorrow because they are trying to make up for a total of one and a half events this weekend that were previously postponed, and, consequently, there are many heats to be run.

Another

Came across this site as I tripped around the Web: The Surf and the Fury.

Slightly bigger. Windy and sloppy but do-able. There were actually some fun ones for a time.

Perhaps what made it so enjoyable was my new board, a WT 6' 0". It was working great. This one has Futures, and I was using the RTM blue YUs. Seemed to be a good combination. I'm very happy.

Lots of potential (good direction, nice conditions) but disappointing. About 1-2 with rare 3s. Very inconsistent. Slightly crowded. Sunny.

Post-session

Partially sunny with calm-light onshore breeze. About 1-2 (with 3s?) and weak. Crowded. Some spots look pretty good. It's oh-so nice to not have any rain and have some sunshine.
