Grasshopper performed an “Entrepreneur State of Mind” survey and published some of their findings in this interesting infographic.
I’ve been fiddling around with integrating wave models into Buoy Alarm, and have a working proof-of-concept (Waimea buoy model above). Pretty excited about it, although looking into the future kinda feels like cheating. And for you Facebook peoples, we’re posting model reviews on the Buoy Alarm Facebook page.
Buoy Alarm takes a look back at the 2009-2010 Quiksilver Eddie Aikau, and how mother nature provided Greg Long with a secondary pulse to surge towards victory.
The Wave Watch 3 models are showing some incoming action for Hawaii. Looking good for the Triple Crown of Surfing finish of the Reef Hawaiian Pro at Haleiwa. Another good sized swell directly behind it should provide some Thanksgiving action for the North Shore.
Stay tuned to the Kauai Buoy (@buoy51001) to monitor how and when the swell starts to fill in.
I don’t know what it is about town swells, but they just can’t seem to live up to the hype. Seriously, we got skunked by Felicia. Even tried twice to dawn patrol, only to be completely and utterly disappointed. Wait, wasn’t there a children’s story about this…?
