As the 2022/23 season draws to a close, the North Pacific threw up one last swell for the Hawaiian islands.
On May 2nd, a 6-10 foot NW swell pitched across Pipe and Backdoor, with a brigade of hot locals, including John John, enjoying last drinks.
"That board felt like the starting point for a new life."
The inner mechanics of Russell's mind.
Sniffing out the bounty on land and at sea.
From a day with a low wave count yet high consequence.
Like a hundred social media clips joined together but not on social media.
Seeking darkness on a sunny day.
And Matahi lifts the bar yet again.
Bite size humans in king size waves.

Waves on north and south shores...
Town and country
looks very peaky with no sand on the reef, sick rides to be had nonetheless
I love those deeeeeep long driving bottom turns they all learn to do growing up in that size and power. They cover so much ground. Most of us just dont learn to do that stuff in Oz.
mmmm , maybe take that up with Mick & Parko
I was referring to the mortals amongst us....
Even the non-pro punters in that video had it down.
