Over the course of a 48 hours waves on the North Shore went from sloppy to big round and scary some choose to spectate rather than participate. Sunset doing it's thing.
Big or small Steven Sawyer has an answer for the conditions.
Davey Brand gets to wake up and walk from his backyard straight into the surf.
It can get cold in Hawaii, Steven dons a wetsuit to brave the elements and fight off wax rash at Rockky Lefts.
Waiting for a gap to paddle can be a daunting task.
Just when you think you are safe a set breaks on the outer reefs.
You wait patiently paddle into a wave get blasted and repeat the process all over again.
Steven Sawyer caught one of the bigger waves as the swell went from head high to over head in 60 minutes.
Jack Johnson grows beards and enjoys surfing too.
A lot of surfing the bigger conditions on the North Shore is all mental, calm and relaxed is the way to be.
Seth Moniz on a wave twice his size, probably a good thing because the set behind was three times his size.
Maya Gabeira getting some paddle practice at Sunset.
All along the 7 mile stretch waves were being ridden, even at Pipe.
Some guys get photo incentives so they work hard for those dollars.
Rock Piles is in plain open sight but it has the reputation of a hidden gem.
