Hi NWkite'rs,
Just thought I'd report back on a really big day. It's been flat, no wind, as a cold front works it's way through. As luck would have it the north swell hits, jaws is going off, and Hookipa is closing out, nothing but mist.
The wind picked up yesterday to about 18/17mph at Kanaha. The waves were big. like 10 to 15 on the outside. It was an epic day!

When you can see the shore in your Maui Go-Pro shot... That means you ain't near anything of consequence.

Sorry Ron... Excuses are plentiful... Fix your Go Pro and get to proving... You have lived in Maui long enough to know where Spartans is... Relatively low consequence wave that gets f'ing big. Get out there and show Jambi some good clean Maui fun... The swim in is not that bad... Done it a few times when I lived there....

PostSun Dec 21, 14 8:39 am    Yea, I'll get a new one, go pro that is... Reply with quote

I'm a low risk kiter. I post the stuff to help other low risk kiters. It's funny but I get pm'ed with questions from guys who are scared to ask questions on our somewhat hostile blog.

I don't really care what anyone thinks, respectfully saying this, especially the haters. I'm living my dream and want to share the experience with those who might get something important from my post.

Jon, you are an awesome video maker and athlete. I'm in awe of what you do, but I'm not trying to do anything really serious. I guess I just don't really care what people think.

On the other hand I will publicly answer the pm question that I've received.

What size kites would you bring in Jan. This is my first year back in a while but I would say if you weigh 200lbs. that you should bring your 10 and 12. You can rent a surfboard from Hawaiian Island Surf and Sport, or pay to ship it over.

When I grab some video of some big waves with me on em I'll do it, but for now I'll settle for the memories that I have. Kanaha gets big and it's relatively safe, slow breaking and forgiving if you dump your board or kite.

Merry Christmas
Very Happy
