Brian Young on the app I just click community at bottom and home from the list of options. I assumed that covered both communities but I don't know. They start about 23-24 days ago and go forward from there. I believe that they are all posted by Clayton, but some might be under the original submitters name (not 100% sure about that.). They are there though.

Scrolling through the posts is weird sometimes if you have it sorted by newest activity cause every comment bumps a potential older post to the top of the list. Try sorting by newest and scroll back about 23 days.

They have been posted in the community. Maybe 23 days or so back by now. Look for video clips posted by Clayton basically... he gives voice analysis of them...they have been getting cut off at the 1 min mark but they are there.

First day in weeks it's not raining or freezing and the bowl is dry... Just in time to test out the new shred stick my daughter's got me for Christmas.
Back to working on my figure 8s, haven't skated in a while+ new board so just getting used to it.
Do have to say though for my fellow taller OMBE crew with a wider stance: I already love this new board! Nose kick kept my front foot locked it, felt like I had a normal stance for my size for once (I am 6'3"). Felt like I was riding a cruisey mid-length.

Board specs:
Powell Peralta JM Duran Slidwinder model
Carver C5 trucks
Bones red bearing
P.P. Dragon formula 93a 60mm wheels

Totally stoked on the board and how fast and stable it felt.
Definitely could have made that last attempt if I didn't fear the roll in lip so much. Can't wait to get back at it. Yeeeewww

They are forecasting it to get bigger throughout the day into late afternoon.

The Eddie is called on! 30-35 foot Hawaii scale.
I just checked the surfline cam for Waimea, people lined up on the beach in the dark and waves are Yuge!!!
Believe 2016 was the last event and I'm hearing it's bigger this year.... stoked to watch it. Hoping John John wins his second!

Pipe masters is on. 15-20 foot surf. Blak bear surf club and Nathan Florence going to be streaming on YouTube. It's the only way to watch it live.
Love me some Big Pipe barrels... I can't ride them, but I can dream!

I would love to go to one as well. Been trying to talk my wife into the 32 hours of flights, the 10k in airline fees, and shipping the kids over in boxes so I can afford it.

Just wanted to share with everyone in the community and Clayton Nienaber.
This video is me working on one simple turn with the help of a few posts in the community and 20 mins a day in the bowl to practice.
3 turns over the course of 7 calendar days or so, practicing 20 mins a day in the bowl before work, posting my clips and taking the advice of the community members and Clayton.
I do realize it's still far from perfect and I have much to work on but the improvement I see in myself with y'alls help is amazing. I just wanted to say I'm proof that putting yourself out there and using the community can be an amazing resource.
Now to take it to the water...but im fully stoked on the results. Thank you everyone for all your help.
