SW WIND 5 TO 10 KT. WIND WAVES 2 FT. W SWELL 20 FT AT 14 SECONDS.
Per Paul Strauch: [The] Photo was taken in the 60's at Haleiwa at its best running 10 -12' on a NW with beautiful conditions... I remember the day well. It was a hairy takeoff because the guy on the red board dropped in on me and in a nano second, Joey Cabell was under me with George Downing in close pursuit. I think I crowded the guy in front of me into pulling out, but my memory stops there. Great day and super crowded since Haleiwa was the place to be!
This is not...Surf In Oregon.

cut the wave size in half, and it could be agate any day of the week.
-AZ transplant
My guess is fall/early winter of 1967, based on the graphics on Cabell's board...it was a 9'6'' Downing pintail, as I recall.
