The much feared, shifty Banzai Pipeline

96712

Yep. Still here. Here in Hawaii that is.

The weather gods have been kind and there has been plenty of cranking waves.

Bet you didn’t know:

  • Hawaii is the 50th state of America. It was the last to join and is dubbed the fittest state in the USA. That’s because everyone is surfing all day and not working.
  • It’s GoPro mecca here. Everyone has one. Self poles, selfie helmuts, selfie boards, GoPros in mouths, armpits and in between toes. It is mental. Nick Woodman (owner of GoPro) even just bought a huge block of land at Rockies for the bargain price of 8 mil.
  • 96712 is the North Shore’s postcode
  • Robin’s Nest (Magnum P.I.s residence) is on the East Coast with many other very large houses. I think it’s still for sale for a cool 15 million.
  • Everyone drives a V8 pickup truck and there is no recycling on the North Shore. Yes, you read right.
  • Coffee making is not one of America’s talents.

It takes courage to draw such a line on a decent sized wave like this

Best time of day over here, sunset surf.

No joke. One of the most dangerous shorebreaks in the world
