another way to spend the night on the lagoon :-)

we're back out at Haapiti, and there is a bigger swell running in,

so the boys are all happy

spray

the view to Haapiti town

section

big arching turn, good when you have a lot of wave to work with

great session today

under the lip

meanwhile, across the channel , the right hander

hollow

off the top

inside

yes, epic backhand barrel

again, snapping that board of the lip

section

wish I had a 400mm lens right now

nice

so much fun. I was struggling a bit on the bigger waves on my 5'6", did not have that control on the bottom turns and felt like I was about to fall flat on my face a few times :-)

heading back to Canada ?

sun is pretty hot today

quite common for the villagers just to paddle out and have a look and then just paddle back

nice

after a good session heading back for lunch

and I will never tire of these colours

after lunch, just had to have another session at Beachcomber

and Benji offered to take a few photos of me surfing :-)

nice walls out here

typing this, wishing I was here again right now

paddle back to the boat

feeling the sun on my face today

but smiling also
