There are multiple north swells rolling in that were generated from big storms near Japan and compounded by heavy winds. The forecast is telling us that big waves will likely continue through the rest of January! These swells are generating surf upwards of 20-40′+ faces.

With surf like this rolling in, the Eddie is sure to go off this month! Be sure to sign up for text notifications so you can be there to watch the pros compete in insanely big waves at Waimea bay.
