Local new’s saying a posibility of the Eddie on Saturday! Maybe someone will paddle that beauty out in the bay.
maybe size does matter,
13 foot of celebrity, but the big woody maybe having difficulties getting wet.
sheeesh, wonder if Roy has been getting much sleep.
That is a good photo of Randy.

Hope somebody tells him about the chip on the tail. Hate to see his face torn off.

Dude, it’s Randy Rarick, he sanded that chip with the calluses on his bare hands. (Mr. Chips would have been proud)
Then he surfed Sunset Point, scoring a bunch of fun waves, including one tube ride.
His report to me included the fact he asked Mark Healey to ride it at Pipe. “Only over 10 feet, when I can get in early and build up a head of steam”, was the madman’s reply.
The 13 footer may ride Waimea Saturday. I’m not naming names yet, but you would not believe me anyhow, so we will just wait and see.
Hawaiian time is slow, but when it happens, it REALLY happens. Let’s make some history, shall we?

Hootski…are you saying that Randy got barrelled at Sunset on the Olo?

"As for holding a line, the board holds on the steepest of faces, and is perfectly capable of holding in on a pipeline face as well as any board ever built, it will also handle steep late drops. "
Indeed, but take note of the sweet spot, just stand in the middle of the board and she’ll just about do it all herself.
.
historicly ,before the leash,
boards always rode better without a rider
if they were designed properly
riders just confuse the issue.
if somebody would just
push it into a wave from third reef
it would be a purr-fect cat a tonic
ride .
…ambrose…
congradulations on your
success and return.
dont park your bus on
the street near ehukai
somthing of value might
come up missing.
E-pac,
The above photo has truely captured the REAL sweet spot!
