Waimea Derby

Waimea Derby

Paddle in purists will cringe at this shot of Waimea Bay with all the jet skis in the lineup!  Just pretend for a moment none of it is there and enjoy the approaching set.  2009 Eddie Aikau Event.


Paddle power is back!

Paddle power is back!

I got a call from a friend of mine today from the North Shore of Oahu.  He was standing on a 3-story beach house where he was doing construction. There were a few guys surfing a well known tow-in spot in front of him and he was giving me the play by play.  ”One of [...]


Big ups to Shane

Big ups to Shane

Who is one of the best all around surfers in the world today?  Kelly? Well, ofcourse.  Mick after his second world title? Yes.  Joel’s surgical cuts even after his world title collapse? Sure, the argument could be made…and there are many others.  But I’m all about looking a little deeper and beyond the ASP tour.  [...]


Waimea Bay (warm up?)

Waimea Bay (warm up?)

At any other time this would be really good Waimea Bay, but with all the hype of the next swell, it seems everyone is overlooking today’s good surf.  I say this was a great day- sunny, light variable winds and some incredible surfing! Above are 21 unforgettable moments from the session. Here are ALL THE [...]


Valentine’s Waimea is back

Valentine's Waimea is back

There have been several requests for last season’s Waimea Bay session on Valentine’s Day (February 14, 2008). I have reposted this gallery and made your photos available one last time. If you want your photos, please order them as soon as you can or they may be gone forever. The gallery is huge- over 1300 [...]


Perfect Surf update

Perfect Surf update

Looks like the week of perfect surf will continue with more on the way. Wow. I gotta admit to being a little tired and surfed/photo’d out. Although yesterday was a little on the mixed up side, Waimea had a few in the morning and here is a shot to prove it. That’s Andrew Marr just [...]


Eddie Opening ceremony

Eddie Opening ceremony

I went to the Eddie Opening ceremony this afternoon- begrudgingly! Why? Because Pipe was off it’s head, mental, insane, whatever you want to call it. I experimented all day with different angles and lenses and have some cool shots to show for it, but you’ll have to wait to see them.   For now I [...]


Waimea Bay

Waimea Bay

Does this Waimea charger make his air drop? You will have to wait and see when the galleries load. This might take awhile because there are 1,200 photos! Ridiculous? Yes. Way too many photos, but I just couldn’t help myself. Waimea was good. Not great or epic, but just really good (BTW, I think people [...]


New Galleries posted!

We got your Galleries – Pipe, Sunset, and even Waimea right here! Let’s start with the epic day at Pipe which was on ‘Black Friday’ shopping day. I couldn’t think of a better place to be than at Pipe going off while the rest of the US is in WalMart! ha ha…This gallery includes the Aamion [...]


Swell gossip…

Swell gossip...

It was flat today and it has been small lately. Everyone is playing the waiting game. Seems like a great time to gossip about upcoming swells. At the moment we have good reason. Looks like a nice couple of storms are brewing and this weekend could be epic, but it is still just a forecast. [...]


Sharks Sighted at Waimea Bay!

Sharks Sighted at Waimea Bay!

Seems the ‘man in the grey suit’ has been seen around the Bay lately. I have never seen this sign before and it made for a shameless photo op. That’s me and my little boy who just turned 1 year old! All we really need is one big pumping swell to clear them out! Looks [...]


Goodbye, old friend…

Goodbye, old friend...

The old Sickshots site is going to be trashed starting tomorrow (it is so large it may take all weekend).  There has been plenty of warning for you to get your SickShots, so please don’t come crying to me about “dude, I forgot to order my photo!”  Sorry, it’s time to move on. You’ve only [...]
