Hawaii World Jr team is coming home tomorrow morning! They did amazing! They took 2nd in over all, Alessa Quizon got 2nd in Under 18 Girls, and Koa Smith got 3rd in Under 16 Boys.
They did a great job representing Hawaii to the world.
Super proud of Hawaii kids. you guys and girls did awesome! I’ll see you all tomorrow (Friday) at the airport!
oh, and if you want to come greet them at the airport, their flight Quantas #003 is landing at 8:45am at the International Terminal!
Thanks ISA for the photo!
Volcom Pipeline Pro Day 1 was on today. I had to work on my computer but i was watching the webcast. The waves were insane! 10ft Hawaiian and offshore wind!

it’s insane how good the webcast is for this contest. only thing missing was the ground shaking as the sets hit the beach. if they can come up with that technology, i’m staying home to watch all the contests from now on! ha ha.
I gotta say Landon McNamara was the MAN today! or should i say the BOY. ha ha. he’s only 13 and he was charging and advancing to the next round. i mean the waves look huge on all the grown ups, so when Landon took of on his waves they were like 4x overhead. i was freaking out watching him take off on the biggest wave of the heat, bottom turn (it’s not easy to bottom turn when you are going mach 5 straight down a wave), get shacked (could’ve probably fit 3  Landons in that thing), and coming out!
Awesome job Landon!
