Just returned from the north shore with mediocre conditions but was able to stand up surf and kneelo at Backdoor and Pipeline.
It was probably 6 or 7 foot...not that scary but still sketchy. Pictures to come soon.

Very Happy I just signed up for this site and read your post. I was wondering are you living here in the islands or just visiting? If you are still here, we got some pristine conditions or as we call it here in the isles "malia", this last week not very big but beautiful, 4-6ft. hawaiian style, expect the same for this week, if you are still here come on down, it would be good to surf with another kneeboarder since there arent much here in the isles.
just got back

Howdy,
i'm heading to Oahu tomorrow for a week. i understand that during the summer it's the south/east side of the island that gets the swell. any recommended surf spots? I''ve printed off a map from wannasurf.com as a start
thanks

SW winds. Whats the call master? Please transmit telepathically. Finally going surfing today.

sorry but my telepathy is somewhat spotty when it's Kona winds. something to do with a chronically weak transmitter.
don't play dumb with me mr. Oahu.......
how about that spot past Waihole near the old sugar mill?

Way past that sugar mill place. Three foot speed pocket right bowls with sort of funky winds but OK. Eight guys out, five of us were friends. We almost group hugged. Then I remembered what that other guy said about that and put a stop to it. It is nice to surf again. I feel human... and greasy from the sunscreen.
