thumb Flat day fun. Tracks takes in some of the sights on the north shore.

Two pots of gold.

A quiet old day here on the North Shore, waves have dropped again overnight and it’s safe to say it is now flat by Hawaiian standards – which means the Tracks team got to have a surf. There is light at the end of the tunnel however; with the swell predicted to start building tomorrow and with any luck there should be some fun waves by the afternoon and hopefully some Pipe days before the end of the week.

When it’s flat on the north shore you have to make your own fun. So team Tracks jumped in our trusty Dodge and headed off for a drive around the Island. Our sharpshooter Nathan smith snapped off the following images of for your viewing pleasure.

Hopefully tomorrow we can return with some more surfing action, but for now, enjoy this snapshot of beautiful Oahu.
