I would skip the deep fried part, but gladly eat her with Poi, sticky white rice, and the chili peppaah whatever.#1 ... if you don't know, the Big Island of Hawaii is the youngest in the chain of Islands hense, it's too deep for any type of waves to break. There is no shelf, no sand, no sand bars, nada, for a wave to be created. The lava is dropping off the cliffs into thousands of feet of black liquid oblivion.
The wahine should have been deep fried and eaten with Poi and sticky, white rice with chilli peppaah watah ~ stupidity comes in all shapes and sizes ~

Would you surf the coast at Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island if there was a big swell but lava making the ocean boil?
- Thread starter JJJJS
- Start date
Lo'ihi seamount may eventually become the next Hawaiian island in 200,000 years or so. We got some time.
heard Century 21 already has a for sale sign on it..
Based on some recent activity, maybe someone will have a chance to try for lava surf sessions on the west side of Mauna Loa.

MAUNA LOA (VNUM #332020)
19°28'30" N 155°36'29" W, Summit Elevation 13681 ft (4170 m)
Current Volcano Alert Level: ADVISORY
Current Aviation Color Code: YELLOW
Activity Summary: Mauna Loa is not erupting and there are no signs of an imminent eruption at this time. However, Mauna Loa continues to be in a state of heightened unrest as indicated by increased earthquake activity and inflation of the summit. The current unrest is most likely being driven by renewed input of magma 2-5 miles (3-8 km) beneath Mauna Loa’s summit. Monitoring data show no significant changes in the past day.
Observations: During the past 24 hours, HVO detected 30 small-magnitude (below M3.0) earthquakes 2-3 miles (3-5 km) below Mokuāʻweoweo caldera and 4-5 miles (6-8 km) beneath the upper-elevation northwest flank of Mauna Loa. Both of these regions have historically been seismically active during periods of unrest on Mauna Loa.
The earthquakes and aftershocks from the morning of October 14, 2022 (HVO Information Statement) did not caused any changes in Mauna Loa monitoring data streams.
Global Positioning System (GPS) instruments at the summit and on the flanks of Mauna Loa continue to measure inflation at rates elevated since mid-September. However, tiltmeters at the summit are not showing significant surface deformation over the past week.
Concentrations of sulfur dioxide (SO2), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and carbon dioxide (CO2), as well as fumarole temperatures, remain stable at the summit and at Sulphur Cone on the upper Southwest Rift Zone. Webcam and thermal camera views have shown no changes to the volcanic landscape on Mauna Loa over the past week.

Probably not. It's super violent with lots of toxic gases floating around. Puna just lost some of their only waves a few years ago around Pohiki. Nobody was paddling out.Would you?
The pictures would look pretty good IMHO
that stupid bitch should get filmed dancing in front of a couple of grizzly bears. the jerk who filmed that needs a fatal mauling too...
^ Isn't there a place on Kauai where Pele's left for Oahu, continuing on with her quest for fire? There was a great view of Waimea Canyon at the spot in any case.

There are plenty of folktales about Pele’s origins, and most of them depict Pele having a passionate, fiery, and jealous personality.
One of the most told versions narrates how Pele was born in Tahiti, an island of the French Polynesia, from which she was banished by her father because of her misbehaviour. Apparently, Pele had offended one of her sisters, Namakaokahai, the goddess of sea, by seducing her husband. Pele’s older brother Kamohoalii, the king of sharks, gave Pele a large canoe to sail away to the Hawaii islands, to avoid her sister’s wrath. Pele first landed on the Kauai island, the northernmost of the five islands, when she was ambushed by Namakaokahai who attacked Pele with tidal waves and left her to drown. However, Pele was able to recover and escape to Oahu, then to Molokai and to Maui islands. During her journey, Pele dug fire pits in each island she visited creating volcanoes through huge eruptions, such as the Diamond Head crater in Oahu and the Haleakala volcano in Maui. Her fire pits turned volcanoes allowed her angry sister to track her, eventually reaching Pele in Maui, for a final epic battle. Namakaokahai fought her sister by sending huge tidal waves and tsunami while Pele countered with fires pulled up out of the trembling earth, each spewing rivers of fiery lava into the ocean. Finally, Pele lost the battle and escaped to Hawaii island, where she dug her final pit at the Halemaumau Crater at the summit of the Kilauea, where it is believed she resides still today.
The incapacity to decisively win a battle but to always survive represents the role of Pele in keeping everything (Earth and Sea) in balance.

These photos were taken from the house (Pu’uanahulu) at sunset the first day that Kilauea @HawaiiVolcanosNationalPark went off and the “Vog” made it around South Point to the Kona side.

Was in Kona yesterday and noticed the vog is already building up. Not so bad up north with the trades.
