January 18th

Wow that was a ton of fun. Spent the last three days up at RYW, with a bunch of friends from out of town, all down for the swell. A motley crew of foreigners spending the weekend together up in a Hainan shanty town, like some kind of retreat for the odd. I got a ton of great footage, so look forward to that coming soon.

Today should still be pumping up there. Tomorrow will fade a bit, and by Wednesday it should be pretty tiny. But we've got another NE coming in by Friday. Look for another fun weekend. After a warm El Nino winter so far, we are starting to see the NE swells behave like they are supposed to, coming down the east coast to China, then moving west across the South China Sea over towards us.
