Day 15 was started the same as the last few days (I’m hoping one of these posts will start a little different). We headed up to Haiku to meet up again with Danny of D Surfboard Repair so that Julien could give him the exact specs for glassing his new Rawson Tow Board. I was able to get off a couple cool shots in the finishing and glassing rooms.
From there, we headed to Ho’okipa. The waves really didn’t look too great and it was way more crowded today because it is the weekend. I decided to shoot while Julien headed out on the SUP. I hiked around Ho’okipa a bit. After shooting and watching the grommets rip up the mushy waves, we headed to Morris’ house to work on one of the SUP boards.
We then went to the grocery store where I think there is at least a dollar markup on every product. On the way back home we stopped by Lanes so I could grab a couple sunset shots. As we were back on the road passing Ho’okipa Julien spotted a couple Humback’s out past the break. We pulled over to try and grab a shot.
We finally made it home with the ice half melted. Julien finished getting the ski ready for the up coming swell. I pulled out the strobes and setup for a couple portrait shots. After running completely out of light we headed in and called it a night.
