12 year old Souichiro-kun has been skiing since he was 1 year old. yesterday was his first time surfing and he was so excited! but when we paddled out, i think he wasn’t use to being in the ocean because he looked very concerned. haha. so cute!
then when he caught his first wave, he was so stoked! he was smiling the whole way!!! haha. how perfect is his style? perfect!
and the high five finish! look at Souichiro-kun’s smile.
then it was Ikeda-san’s turn. he got up on his very first wave and surfed it perfectly. he was so stoked too!
the golden smile after the golden ride.
the kid kept on catching some really good waves. look at him go!!!
and Ikeda-san too! perfect ride and perfect day with Diamond Head in the back.
i absolutely love teaching kids surfing for the first time. i wish i can teach every kid in the world how to surf!
thank you Souichiro-kun and Ikeda-san for the amazing afternoon. good weather, good waves, good smiles, and good memory. keep on surfing!
