The Big Waves are Comin’

On Saturday, the premiere surfing event, Vans Triple Crown of Surfing, begins on Oahu’s North Shore. That means the big, ginormous, monster waves of winter are on their way!

If you’re going to Oahu between now and February, keep your eyes and ears tuned to the surf report. If the big waves are coming, then try to take a peek at the surfing action on the North Shore. The Banzai Pipeline is a great place to watch the expert surfers carve up the waves.

If you’re lucky enough to catch one of the Vans competitions that are spread out over November and December, check out these useful spectator tips.

If you’re not one of those lucky ones, don’t worry, I’ve got something for you, too. Check out this super duper awesome video of Oahu big wave surfing in slow motion.
