So you swim out through all this crashing white water to get to the 20 foot swell and hopefully ride it back to shore without being thrown to the bottom and dragged along the corral. And 50 foot waves may be coming. This is definitely a vicarious experience for me.

We saw huge waves on Maui last March (2009) at a popular surfing beach and there were NO surfers in the water. They were standing on the top of the cliffs watching. They said it was not the height of the waves, but the fact that they were breaking so cloe together. If you went down, another onen would crash on top of you. These were experienced surfers.

Love those South Pacific winter storms and the power they can pack.

My wife and I spent our first year of married life together (1970) on the north shore (the quiet end, Mokuleia). But I’d body surf Waimea all the time until it got over ten, and then i’d go in, where I belonged. One day that winter, the managable surf in the late morning got bigger and bigger- we split. It got to over 60 feet. The white water alone covered that big rock on the west (left) side of the bay, opposite the church tower. Beyond belief, that power. Amateurs, stay on the beach.
