HASA State Championships

forrest_troxell — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 03:36:05 +0000

After finishing the Hawaiian Amateur Surfing Association maui season rated 1st in junior men, and 6th in open men, I was ready to compete in the state championships on Oahu, at Ala Moana Bowls. First day of the competition, surfed the junior men heat, and closely didn’t make the heat. It left me discouraged, but I had a whole day to think about what I needed to do better to excel in Open Mens the next day. The next day came, and I surfed my Open Men heat, and advanced, and continued to advance through 2 other heats that day to make it to the finals. The finals came on Friday, the last day of the competition. The surf was on fire: 2 feet overhead and offshore barrels. I surfed the final and placed 3rd in it. I am super stoked on the result! Check out some of these photos from online of the final heat.

Here’s a quick vid of today’s session. Some of the clips aren’t the best obviously, but I wanted to put all of them from the session so you see the raw surfing as well.

HASA #4 Event

I just surfed in the fourth stop of the HASA series on maui and placed 1st in Juniors and 4th in Open Men. I am totally stoked on my result and can’t wait for the next HASA in Lahaina, the last event on Maui before state championships. I hope to place well again. State championships start in early June.

My life update!

forrest_troxell — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 07:51:55 +0000

Yo yo!! What’s up everyone. Just wanted to update the world on what’s going on in my life. Spring Break! I’ve been off for a week and now finishing my second week off. The surf has been very consistent the whole time. It’s getting small though so it’s a good time to focus on homework due. I’m a senior at Hana High so I gotta knuckle down and graduate with a high GPA. Did some shooting with Quincy Dein over the break, but not too sure how the shots came out. Anyway, that’s about it. Life is good…aloha!

Looking, scanning, searching the horizon for what might be that approaching set. A lump in the ocean moving quickly towards the land and I know what is in store. I turn around and paddle, lining myself up 2 feet on the shoulder of the dry rock that creates the boil. The wave slams the rock and I stand up, air dropping into what seems like death, all I can see is reef beneath me. Land in the flats, and somehow hook my bottom turn and angle into the pocket of the hollow wave. I see Quincy sitting on the shoulder, just outside of the barrel’s mouth pointing that bright yellow water housing directly at my face. I tuck under the lip and draw my line through a beautiful emerald green and electric blue tube. Flying past Quincy, the lip closes tightly and I hold my chest as closely as I can towards my knees. I push my head through the chandelier of the barrel, knowing this situation can go both ways - close out or a beautiful exit. Before I know it the sun shines and the shoulder of the wave welcomes me as I make it through another amazing barrel at this secret surf spot.
