The Ultimate Spontaneous Involvement in a Natural Medium
October 24, 2017 10:02 PM   Subscribe

October thus far has been a very, very good month for surfers the world over. From CT super-jocks in Europe, to early-bird arrivals on the North Shore, to everyone and their dog in California – everywhere has been getting waves. And it’s not stopping anytime soon; next stop, Jaws. The Pe’ahi Challenge has been green lit to run from Friday through Saturday, with peak wave heights potentially hitting the 40 to 50-foot range, courtesy of a storm brewing in the Pacific’s northwest corner. As of now, the apex of the swell is projected to unload upon Jaws on Friday afternoon, and continue into Saturday morning. posted by stinkfoot (4 comments total) 5 users marked this as a favorite
