Hawaii surfers ignore warnings to ride monster waves

  • 8 years ago
Big wave surfers in Hawaii ignored weather warnings this weekend to take on the monster waves crashing on O'ahu's North Shore.

The most popular break for the daredevil big wave surfers was Waimea Bay.

Huge waves, some believed to be as high as 12 meters (40 feet), have been spotted off the coast of the North Pacific Ocean islands in recent days.

The National Weather Service issued a high surf warning for the north and west shores of Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Maui and Molokai.
