When I moved to
Maui in 1993, I continued my surf photography at places like
Jaws, Hookipa, and south shores. It was great to watch people like
Laird Hamilton and
Dave Kalama riding huge waves and trying new things like straps on surfboards. It is very exciting to watch a place like Jaws breaking with its rugged coastline, high cliffs, plus it is not that easy to get to. Back then the surfers didn't wear PFDs (personal floatation device).
Wind is always a factor on Maui, so naturally I shot a little bit of windsurfing.
A lot of my shots are posted on
flickr.
Here are some of my favorite shots from the 90s on Maui.
