The King of Jaws Billy Kemper has returned to the world's premier paddle-in big wave venue after a serious injury suffered earlier this year in Morrocco.
The swell saw Peʻahi turn on for the second day of Winter, with solid surf providing a taste of what is to come this season.
Billy Kemper, Albee Layer and Kai Lenny were among the surfers who scored the first Jaws swell of the 2020-21 Winter Season.
Kemper found the barrel and looked as comfortable as ever, while Kai Lenny and Albee Layer also scored some bombs.
The waiting period for the Jaws Championship Pe'ahi begins on December 21st and runs until March 31st, so expect to see all the best big wave surfers in the world competing at Jaws again very soon.
