Here’s a quick video I slapped together of action at Hookipa on Thursday. Can’t ID all the riders in it, but definitely Kevin Pritchard, Mark Angulo and Junko Nagoshi.
Waves got a bit bigger the following day and most Hookipa regulars were downwind at Kanaha. Since it looked a little lighter than Thursday and I was [...]
The excitement here on Maui from the tsunami warning is dying down, so time to turn from tweeting to blogging. First up, March’s Maui windsurfing calendar for your computer desktop wallpaper. March features Levi Siver slashing at Hookipa – shot last fall. Next up, look for some Hookipa video action to be posted tonight or [...]
Trade winds bumped up a notch or two yesterday. After my session at Kanaha (marginal 5.3, some good waves) I headed up to Hookipa to check out the action.
Also got some video – first video I’ve shot since last November. So if I get some time this weekend I’ll do a quick edit and post [...]

The Surfers – Windsurfing (1979).
Also uncool, the light onshore conditions on Maui this last week. Sailable in Kihei sometimes but less [...]
We seem to have finally broken out of the super light wind regime that’s been so dominant no Maui this winter. The past week or so we’ve had trade winds to some degree – sometimes too light to really sail but others very sailable.
Started out the week on Monday on 5.3 and a very floaty [...]
More of the same light wind conditions on Maui the past week. Just like the last several weeks, north winds made Kihei the best bet on Wednesday then winds clocked around a bit on Thursday to make the north shore a little more inviting. Still pretty light though. 5.7 and a mondo, floaty board weren’t [...]
