The surf got big in the Hawaiian Islands this weekend. That might be an understatement. All the attention has been on Maui. But by the looks of it, Oahu stayed clean and beautiful. John John, Koa Rothman and Mikey Wright, among others, were apparently making good choices and staying close to home. Erik Knutson captured John John paddling into this picture-perfect wave with nary a drop of water misplaced. (It’s uncanny how much this looks like Fiji.) We’re not sure if it’s Outside Alligators, Himalayas, or a number of other outer reef locales. We do know it’s big, clean, and while he didn’t quite make it out, John John Florence was in the perfect position.
