So the Forecasted wind hit and hit hard, 20 knots destroyed glassy 3ft peelers within minutes. We made the call to move to a sheltered break that evening to set ourselves up for the following day. Day broke and as the tide filled in it got better and better. We managed to get permission from the locals to scale a water tower for a better angle, I cant wait to shoot from there when this wave really turns on.   

A couple of pics from a glassy afternoon session we scored a few days back. As soon as the boys were done we bailed for another break that would be protected from the forecasted wind.

Early

A day off before our guests arrived and we're pulling up to this yeeeeewwww, there's only the two of us out.

With cold beers in the refrigerator and Nimal busy in the kitchen it's time to jet back to the boat, check the forecast and head for the airport. 

Maldives firing!

I don't know what the hell happened I found this wave that was 3 times the size of anything else in the area I was in. The afternoon session was bigger and cleaner than this! Not bad for February.

If my 10 year old daughter can surf here so can you

Toke it up! I swear we live in one of the most unique places on earth.

Nick Welles back in the day when boatyards was pretty much empty every time we went there.
