With due excitement I lined up for my first wave to make the drop and find my feet. Soon enough Timo was rigging at the base of the cliff and heading out for the offering. Every so often the sets would surge through reminding us what the fuss was about. In the back of my mind I had expectations that exceeded the size of the swell but I soon discarded these to gratefully take what I was given. The efforts in getting here early were justified with impressive waves and a splendid sunrise. Wave after wave were being ridden, some illusive and fading out some with big late drops and sections that dazzled. Snapshots of memories from the day included going over the falls and enjoying the underwater roller coaster; dropping in to some drop out sections; ground up view of Timo lay down bottom turn right in front of my face; a shared wave with Bubble (who also made it to the party) and staring down a vertical wall with the sunrise in the background.
