Coral cuts you like a dirty, ragged, razor-sharp knife. It rips jagged openings on your skin and leaves behind bacteria that cause infections that may stay with you for the vacation of your life. The scars certainly will. Several of the world’s best surfing breaks are all about tons of water slamming down on serrated coral. They prevailing the opportunity for you to learn what it feels like to be a block of cheese being pushed through a grater.

I was on the island of Kauai one Christmas with my family plus the waves were coming in at fifteen to twenty feet and getting larger. The locals would measure these waves at seven and a half to ten feet because Hawaiian surfers pay out the back of the wave to gauge height. Regardless, it was one of the largest wave seasons in years at Hanalei Bay and surfers from around the world had flown in to downturn their boards. And there I was, right inside the middle of it all.

With each modern venue, the waves broke further from shore. I was forced to paddle out away within the shore to avoid a thundering wall of white water that would rake me again the shallow coral bottom. It was getting dark; the sun had dropped below the foothills of Waialeale on the west side of the bay. There were solitary two other surfers left from the line-up and I was afraid.

This adventure started innocently enough when Paul the pool man at the hotel showed me how to paddle out through a narrow channel you could easily see below the surface of the water from the cliffs above the beach. The channel cut all through the coral. The waves broke within 300 feet of the shore along with the channel was uncomplicated to paddle thru. This means that an inexperienced surfer could easily paddle out a short distance through the channel and quickly find himself in authoritative waves two to three times overhead. I did that.

The waves at any break always expression much smaller while in the shore. While in the cliffs above this trip the perfectly formed waves looked challenging then again manageable. I waded carefully out a few points. The 75 degree water welcomed my northern Californian bones. I gently laid down on my 9’6” Harbour and paddled out quickly at most 100 yards just beyond where the waves were breaking. The enhance was increasing and that created waves that kept getting higher. The occasional rogue wave coming in from outside would control me to paddle even farther out to avoid being buried under tons of water.

I sat on the outside and watched the challenged surfers position themselves in the line-up and launch into 15 - 20 foot waves. It was a good thing the waves were breaking relatively consistently. If I could catch a wave I would probably be alright. If I missed my take off I would have a good chance of being washed into shore, collecting lacerations on all body parts along the way.

I managed to find my way on to two smaller waves early in the tutorial on the other hand exited off their shoulders quickly so as to acquire back outside as soon as possible. Then again the waves were getting to be higher than I could handle. Worse then again, I couldn’t find the coral channel that had dumped me conveniently into the line-up without even getting my hair wet. You couldn’t see the channel sitting on a board from water level. It was a thorny way to be reminded of a key moral: “Never paddle out without first figuring out how you are going to buy back in safely”. There were higher lessons to come.

The sun eventually dropped below Mt. Waialeale on the west side of the bay. As early darkness crept in surfers were catching their last waves. Within 20 minutes the line-up was just about clear. I had attention that my vital bet was to watch the gal surfer on the outside of the line-up. She was not a in good physical shape paddler and wasn’t catching any waves, so I was certain that she must make out a safe return to the beach. She did actually. With just three of us left inside water, she and her guy pal paddled out into the bay and climbed onto their motor boat and puttered away. Now why hadn’t I notice of that?

After basically three hours within the water, I was currently useless of paddling. I had been worked by two waves when, in dramatic fashion, I missed my take-offs. “Comedic” fashion might be a greater choice of words. Each time I managed to fight my way back out and avoided being caught inside. Still the waves wouldn’t let up and they kept creeping up in size. My goal was to catch a wave and ride it into the river mouth about a half-mile down the bay to my right. The problem was that my arms did not have the vigor left to power me into these great waves. The concentration occurred to me for the first time in my life; “I might be mortal after all”.

I kept paddling away within the sand and down the beach line trying to stay out of the way of the waves. I finally got out ahead

of the growing raise as it broke across an ever increasing crescent of the bay.

I tried to stay calm and to think apparently. It looked like those efforts were paying off. It’s not that I am brave, it’s that I knew that my vital chance to see my wife and kids yet again was to keep my emotions in check. I did what I had to do. That’s when my hand went into the water and hit a solid object. A solid object inside the core of the bay.
