Waiting Period - Now through sometime (Jan 16?)

Running bodysurfing, longboarding, and SUP today in building surf. Little bit weather sick looking right now. Will be live on Spectrum 250/1250 and Surfline.com at 11:00 HST.

Should be better tomorrow, likely to run regular heats then.

I’m watching from the beach with a bulging disc in my neck. Fun.

Take care Craig. Was there till 8:30 this morning. Really small but could feel the pulses starting to come. Was high tide too. Hope it got better.

Yeah, my folks live outside Sebring, and they said it’s been freezing. Happy New Year, Greg. You’re making the transition look easy. Be better conditions at Pipe once some more sand moves. Fun watching my friends get some good waves today. Grizzly Todd Sells was the man.

I don’t think there’s any way they’re going to run today. Plenty swell in the next week.
