Kahana Sunrise

Kahana Sunrise

This is another of my images from yesterday morning’s glorious sunrise here in Hawaii. I was actually headed at the time for Lanikai, further to the south but as I rounded Kahana Bay, I could see that the sun
was almost rising already, so I scouted out a spot and waited [...]


Amazing infinity view of Chinaman’s Hat

Amazing infinity view of Chinaman's Hat

Hi Folks, I’ve been going over some images that I shot on the east side a couple of mornings ago and it’s just amazing how good it looks over there when the trade winds turn to Konas. It’s got to be most beautiful part of the island when [...]


Beautiful Tahiti’an- like conditions on Oahu

Beautiful Tahiti'an- like conditions on Oahu

Here in Hawaii, the trade winds blow almost year round from the Nth east, which is great in the hot summer months, but it also means that the wind is always onshore over on the east side of the island, so you rarely get to see the true beauty of the east [...]


Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home

Lane and I just spent the last couple of days over on the BIG island of Hawaii, relaxing and checking the place out a little. Lane grew up on the Big island, so she’s always stoked to go back there. She even got a couple of decent surfs in at Banyons while we were [...]

Let's help out Kehau Sullivan

As many of you know, I’ve been lucky enough to live here on the north shore for the past 12 or so years and during all this time, I’ve been really good mates with Pancho Sullivan and now his wife Hanauni and young family. Pancho and I have been [...]

Mick Fanning wins the world surfing championship at the Pipe masters

It was an amazing day of surfing at the Pipe Masters. Mick Fanning won his round three heat against young Hawaiian; Torrey Meister, keeping the dream alive, then the ball fell into Joel Parkinson’s court for his matchup against Hawaiian surfer Gavin Gillette. Joel pretty much had the [...]


Pipe Masters runs another half day before holding off for the big stuff

Pipe Masters runs another half day before holding off for the big stuff

It’s been a couple of days of the Pipe Masters already, but everyone’s is in such a daze after the recent Giant swell episode that the appeal of the Pipe Masters is not as it usually would be. Given that it’s only 3-5 foot on average, doesn’t help with one’s enthusiasm that much. [...]


Awesome day at the Eddie Aikau big wave surfing invitational

Awesome day at the Eddie Aikau big wave surfing invitational

Hi all, wow, what a few days, it has been. I slept over at the Rip Curl Off The Wall house the night before the contest because they said the roads would be closed down and I wanted to be right there, where it was all going down. The rumble of [...]


Eddie went at Waimea Bay

Eddie went at Waimea Bay

Hi all, I’m super slammed here with a backlog of photo “processing” to do from the past few epic days at Waimea Bay, so I won’t dwell here long, but to say that it’s been an amazing couple of days here. I shot crazy huge Waimea yesterday morning for a [...]


The Bay went HUGE today, but the Eddie waits another day

The Bay went HUGE today, but the Eddie waits another day

We have a massive, massive swell filling in round the north shore right now. I have to get right back up there before they shut it all down, so you won’t be hearing from me again till tomorrow night. Till then, check this beast from Waimea Bay, this morning….


A pleasant afternoon on the north shore

A pleasant afternoon on the north shore

It’s been a few days of relentless wind and rain squalls, so it was a bit of a pleasant surprise when it turned sunny with light off-shores this afternoon. I guess everyone was watching it because there were way more photographers than name surfers at Off The Wall, this afternoon. [...]


Last wave of the day at Sunset

first blood, 2009 season

We had our first north swell pulse of the season over the past couple of days. It wasn’t really anything epic, but hey, it was still August, which is pretty early for north pulses. Here’s a few pic’s of the crew doing their thing at early season rockies….


Return to good conditions

Return to good conditions

Well, it’s really trying to make a return to beautiful weather here on the north shore. Super sunny this morning and plenty of swell around, just a little harder to find anywhere that’s really making good use of the swell. I ended up taking a stab at shooting Sunset, but really [...]


HIC Pipe Trials are GO today

HIC Pipe Trials are GO today

It seems like forever since the pro tour left here and the conditions went bad. It’s been a month and a half since. Now, I’m writing this the night before, but by the time you read this, the HIC Pipe trials should be happening. It’s bound to be dramatic because after [...]

Fun waves at Ehukai Beachie's

Hi All, I went for a bit of a swim this morning just because the sun was out and it was all nice and shiny and I just wanted to get wet. Here’s a few pics that I got along the way….
