Light Wednesday

Today turned out to be pretty light tradewinds. Kind of frustrating since we had a nice late-season swell today with mast-high conditions at Uppers and Hookipa. Hookipa was very crowded as every pro and pro-wannabe was out to score some wave rides. Kanaha by contrast was pretty uncrowded today as most of the rental shops didn't have big enough gear to rent out. I tried my 5.7/90L combo and was able to plane a few times, but had to bear off and pump like a mother to plane. The racer guys were out blasting around on big gear however. Team Neil Pryde seems to be in town testing and photo shooting. Winds should pick up a notch or two tomorrow. Hopefully we'll still have a bit of swell around too.
