We met Evan at 8am on the North Shore. We checked out several breaks and picked one just down from Chuns. I don't recall the name of it. There are 3 breaks side by side. Evan said Blane shoots a lot of his videos there.
I caught 5 waves, each one the best wave of my life.
A ride on one wave here, is equal to 10 waves in NC.
The C4 Sub Vector was incredible. Every turn like a dream. The board handled the waves perfectly for me.
It was one of those days I'll remember for a lifetime.
A big thanks to Evan for taking the time to show us around. The generosity Evan Leong and Todd Bradley have shown us, is just incredible.
Our video camera cannot zoom, so the video will be a letdown. I just hope it gives you some feel for what it was like out there.
Evan said the waves were 2-4 foot. Yeah right. By NC measuring standards, it was mast high on the outside when the best ones came through. Big enough to make the eye balls pop out.
Just look at the spray coming off the waves in NO WIND.
The water texture and balancing act is more challenging than I expected. It's pretty close to the mess we get at home surfing CB inlet. Current and voodoo chop in the channels between the breaks. The Sub Vector did not fail me!
To finish off a perfect day, Evan introduced us to shaved ice, Hawaiian style.
