Can the Foam Surfboard from Costco Handle Over Head North Shore? 1-29-2025

- The boys finally bugged me enough to get up to the North Shore. I was comfortably watching the opening day of the Pipe Pro when Aidan messaged me from the North Shore saying it was slightly overhead and off shore, so I decided to go.
There were still occasional near double overhead sets, tho we didn't get any of them. My first wave was a few feet overhead and with the North Shore power it felt like that was all the Gerry could handle. Once of the larger sets blew Aidan's leash plug out from his board. I ended up catching a few whitewash rides cause I couldn't dip the overhead waves and I didn't want to abandon ship so that was my only other option, lol.
Apparently while we were surfing there was a 10 foot Tiger spotted at Waimea bay which is right next to where we were surfing. Here's the Surfer article about it.

Your advice always help me. I found out when you said large fins and 200lb that if you are lighter it might be more difficult to turn or the turns take longer or more effort. I crashed but I learned a lot because of what you told me. Thank you so much. Awesome to see you doing the double overhead. Brave very brave!
@@luiscardona1495 Love to hear that, thanks Braddah 🙏🏾🤙🏾
I hope your back it OK. I broke my leash there on Wednesday. Had to swim in. Was fortunate that my friends kept an eye on me and snatched my board before it floated down to Pidleys. I have a Jerry Lopez board but barely ride it. It's a good board for the money but I can flex it just by paddling it. So it's a bit squirely on big drops and hard bottom turns. Keep the videos coming. Aloha
@@geezersurf it better now thanks for asking. Ahh man the swim in is never fun, Country has the powah. Spot on assessment on the Gerry in size able North Shore surf 🙏🏾🤙🏾
Another rad video great job! My go to is an 8'4" SIC Maui, kind of like The Gerry with a little more rake & point. I'm a 140 lbs so tryin to duck dive that thing is an "experience" shall we say 😕 Btw was that Laniakea?
🙏🏾Mahalos, I’ll bet that thing is fun to ride and not fun to dip 😂 It was Right and LeftOvers 🤙🏾
epic looked big and fun and scary lol, glad u got out to the north shore, congrats on 2k!!!! see yah in the next 1!!
@@CHillAdventures Thanks Braddah 🙏🏾 Appreciate you 🤙🏾
You sure do have some skills. Keep going brother you rock!
@@luiscardona1495 Appreciate that 🙏🏾🤙🏾
Yeah Nobu! Nice one! I think it was worth the trip.🤙
@@OahuHiHeel 🙏🏾 I think I agree 😂🤙🏾
I think that you did good considering. Overhead North Shore is way different than the South. 🤙🏻
I haven’t been to Leftovers in like 20 years because of the 🦈🦈🦈. Chuns, / or Lani’s & Sunset on north wrap and a little smaller might be good for Gerry. 🙏🏻
@@louisrobinson4164 Thanks Brah, Exactly what I was saying a tiny bit smaller and perfect. You see there was a shark at Waimea while we were surfing? Probably swam right by us 😱 🦈
😳
I would say “worth it”. Mo exciting than 1’🤙🏼
@@bwhit716 Agree with that if only the drive wasn’t hour plus 😂 5 minute drive to Town spots
Sick session!
@@surfininmy40s Thanks Braddah, probably coming your way sometime this year, so let’s surf 🤙🏾
@ hit me up for an epic session. Would be an honor to Surf with you.
Love my softtops, Until I get stuck in a big set lol...
This was a good video. MaHaLo
@@turbowtime9611 😂 Right! Appreciate the positive feedback 🙏🏾🤙🏾
Yay! the board can handle! my friend at makaha has ridden double overhead
@@dukeloo Sick, yes in my Makaha video some guys were catching bombs on da Foamies 🤙🏾 Link to that Makaha video ruclips.net/video/-7RAkhTrO5I/видео.htmlsi=_gsd_GG8azpZEoGX
