The gifts are stacking up for big wave surfers with two very big swells - one potentially an Eddie swell - due just before Christmas.
Compared to the large swell that hit Hawaii mid-December, which developed just west of the international date-line and fell short of Eddie requirements, this next swell will be far larger and more consistent due to the closer proximity to Oahu
This weekend, while most eyes will be on pumping 10 foot Pipeline and the showdown between Mick and Kelly, a much larger swell will be forming in the Western North Pacific Ocean.
Will this be the swell to kick the Eddie Aikau Quiksilver Big Wave Invitational into gear after a three year hiatus?
