Marlon's First North Shore Waves and Surfing with the Bizy's

I've been on a streak the last several days. I've been waking up early to get a dawn patrol in at White Plains (part of my resolution to lose a bunch of belly fat, and to get out and enjoy what is immediately around us more) - but the small swell that was pushing through has dissipated. So along comes Saturday and our friends the Bisgard's call and want to go surfing (Charlie is back on vacation from an overseas tour). No swell down here, too big and unruly on their side of the island... time to checkout Puena Point. That was a good call and a great first session for Marlon to see the difference in the way the waves break up North (without having to get pounded or drug over reef shelves). Here is his first wave!!! Another wave with me behind (must be convenient to have a person with a GoPro constantly following you around everywhere). I caught a bunch - but they were mostly waist to shoulder high. Amy paddled out and here's Charlie up and riding. Fun, mellow surf day!!!

Aloha Friday SUPing at Puena Point

Choppy conditions made for difficult SUP Surfing, but still had a good time. Charlie saying "No Thanks" - the section closes out right after this. Dropping in The inside section was better for SUP surfing.

Small Day SUP Surfing

An old friend Nick came to town and Charlie and I took him SUP surfing up at Puena Point. It has been well over 15 years since I've surfed this spot. It seemed pretty crowded, but when you are faced with gridlock traffic or surfing smaller waves, I guess more folks are choosing the latter and Puena and Haleiwa are getting more crowded. Still had good fun! I caught one awesome wave (forgot to turn the camera on before paddling for it so no pics) and the rest were smaller ones. I think I'm going to bring the family up and get them to try this place.
