Light to moderate trade winds are what the forecasters keep calling the weather pattern we’re currently in here on Maui. Nothing extreme or very exciting going on here that’s for sure. In fact it was light enough most of last week that I didn’t even bother going down since the north shore has been extremely [...] Related posts:

More North Shore Waves Today – Hookipa Photos

jeffbennett — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 03:23:46 +0000

Didn’t see it in the surf forecast but we got some more out of season waves on the north shore. It was a bit of a surprise driving down the hill to Kanaha this morning to see some surf at Kanaha and Sprecks. I’m guessing it was wind-swell generated but it had a lot more [...] Related posts:

It’s the final days of August and yet another summer is coming to a close. What that means to most windsurfers who make Maui home is that, with Fall knocking on the door, our anticipation of the upcoming north shore wave season grows stronger and stronger every day.

Jimmie’s Jumpfest Day 2 Photos

jeffbennett — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 05:51:24 +0000

Day 2 of Jimmie Hepp’s Jumpfest went off today with much better conditions than yesterday on Maui’s north shore. Brilliant sunshine, a small out of season north swell and decent 20mph trades brought out the crowds to Hookipa. With the potential of a north swell plus Kanaha not looking that good, I headed straight to [...] Related posts:

Maui Wind Scale

jeffbennett — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 02:11:25 +0000

Winds on Maui have turned a bit “light” again on the north shore, with guys my size needing 5.7s and 5.8s at Kanaha yesterday. It was light enough that I didn’t bother either yesterday or today. Now, I realize that when I say the wind has turned light that that’s a very relative term. Light [...] Related posts:
