Samoa Still Epic!

Admist all the hoo- haa coming from the Indian Ocean season, its nice to know the South Pacific is still producing some epic swells for the enjoyment of guests.  Sa’ Moana Surf resort produces very, very consistent swell. If you’ve ever wanted to do a surf trip to the south pacific then this place might just be the X on your map!

Unfortunately the Sa’Moana resort camera wasn’t working so no new pics but we’ve added a few of our favourites just to keep up apperances.  All shots are from the 2010 season so far enjoy and get planning today!

 Monday 9^th to15^th of August

Monday No surfers in House

Tuesday   With only one surfing guest in house and small and windy conditions they headed to Wakas for a few fun ones. They were surfing by themselves which made the average conditions even better. Chest to head high side offshore fun wackable walls.

Wednesday  The new crew arrived today with a slight increase in swell to greet them. Wakas was the choice for their first surf and they scored really fun waves. Slightly overhead with side offshores made for an excellent first surf in Samoa.

Thursday  Awoke to hard trade winds and increase in swell so the call was to head to Pebbles for the hard offshores. Large mixed swell but hard off shores made it a little tricky to choose the good ones and some wipeouts were had as well as some great barrels in 1ft to 2ft overhead sets.

Friday  Strong winds again and so they headed out to Devil’s Island for some offshores in the mixed swell. The Island offered up some well overhead sets and very hard side shores. This was a short session as they headed to Coathangers for a look but the wind was still too strong with 30knts.

Saturday  Lighter winds greeted the crew this morning and they headed to Pebbles for some really fun waves coming all the way from the outside to the inside Guillotine for some long rides. With a group of 8 surfers conditions were right to break up the crowd with some focused on the outside and some on the inside Guillotine. Solid overhead sets on the outside and head high on the Guillotine.

Sunday  Calm conditions in the morning gave them a window to head to Ytops to sample a new wave for the group and they scored again with solid overhead sets with good barrels and bowling walls. The wind eventually came after a good 2 1/2hr session for a bumpy ride back to the resort.
