I got really lucky that the my trip to HI coincided with this date and actually got to be at the beach when they called it off. The waves were ridiculous (30-40 ft faces eastern style) but not consistent enough for the comp to go off. Surfing in Oahu is amazing and I feel that it would change any of the people in this forums lives if they haven't already been out there!!
Check out this video. Mark Visser surfing JAWS at night.. http://vimeo.com/19013071 I think it is the same swell from this week (This was posted up on the night surfing thread. Figured I'd post it up again.)
