when i got there, the waves were going off! perfect condition 3+ft waves. i was feeling super tired and sick but i got my camera ready and i was in the water.
i must've been really out of it 'cuz i didn't even set the camera right. i had it set with super low shutter speed... i didn't realize it til the final heat. shiiiit.
this shot came out cool with the slow shutter speed tho. it got so much speed blur, you can feel how Flynn was whipping his board super hard. i'm kindda stoked.
it was staked heats quarter finals on. at the end here's the result.
1st: Flynn Novak (Haleiwa), $2,500
2nd: David Gonsalves (Honolulu), $1,000
3rd: Jason Shibata (Haleiwa), $800
4th: Kaipo Jaquias (Lihue, Kauai), $700
flynn was ripping the whole day. he was finding barrels almost every wave he caught.
davey boy had a sick perfect 10 wave during the quarter finals but i missed the shots because of my camera setting... shiiiit.
he was wipping around his board like a mad man! he was going way beyond vertical and whipping his board back, again beyond vertical. siiiick!
i'm still feeling sick but no time to rest, the waves are too good not to shoot!! i'll rest when it goes flat. ha ha
