OAHU'S two faces have been lighting up recently. North or south? Town or country? Well normally you don't get much a chance to compare with the two swell seasons relying on polar opposite storm systems.

However continuing with the theme that this year has been an 'odd one' south swells arrived early on Oahu's southern shore as early as Feb and north-west swells have even made an appearance up top as late as May. The North Shore was far from its epic best but the bonus swell was a welcome present for the locals.

Mike Rogers from rippanics.com devotes his life to documenting Oahu's standout sessions all year. And Ala Moana has been the standout.

Bali Joe...photo 16....mate this bloke is a legend and a bloody good shaper too. When I was on the NS he helped me out with one of his bat tails with channels especially made for pipe.....and it went like a rip snorter! Keep up the good work fella!

Atleast in number 6 mistiming the duckdive would mean dying happy with a pretty amazing view!
