  • This is by far the biggest swell to hit south shore Oahu in my lifetime! We scored some of the best waves I have ever seen in Waikiki! It felt like we were on a surf trip somewhere in Indonesia. Me Nathan and Ivan Florence must have surfed a total of 7 hours this day! I wish it was always like this haha.

      What's the chances that you rode the same exact swell/wave in Tahiti that you just rode in town... think about it, could've happened. Probably not but you're a numbers guy.
      Weird seeing you surf without a wetsuit..

    The last time I surfed that wave was in like summer 2015 pumping big south and Carrisa and her Dad were out and she’s going straight to the top and hacking it in the pocket, I just remember thinking ok there’s a girl out here ripping i’ll be fine lol, never forget that session ! That was so sick Koa every wave was 10 to the beach. Great music, great vibe, nothing better then being surfed out after the best session ever with the boys, no better feeling ! So es’stoked,

  • @patrickbrunelle3283

    Awesome session Koa. You look stoked. I also used to get rashed sometimes wearing a rash guard. Try this stuff called Body Glide. (blue container, looks like white deodorant). Put a little on before your session wherever you normally get rashed and it will prevent it. Super effective.
