good wednesday morning. 6am and the waves looking epic again. small, but epic conditions. surf diamond head? surf ehukai? ummm.. same size but twice the power at ehukai. a tough call… either way, i’m going surfing. have a nice day…. check out more action from yesterday’s ehukai morning session….

meet these 3 hawaiian pro women surfers. megan abubo. i always liked the way megan surfed. the most powerful of them all…. coco ho is the new sensation. anybody want to be me that she will be world champion in a few years? and rochelle ballard. i traveled with rochelle back in 1990 with the hawaiian world team to japan. nobody knew who she was until she got 3rd in the world. now everybody knows rochelle….

yumie is a positive thinker. this is one girl that changed my thinking on life. i owe her for that….

this is yumi, one of my friends wife. her level of bodyboarding went up 3 levels from last year. i think she’s been practicing and will do good in the upcoming pipeline contest….

this girl was out there ripping yesterday. anybody know who she is? and where she’s from??? good style and good style…

and last, this is mito-chan. i mean, mari-chan. gosh, i keep on getting them mixed up. mari-chan surfs all around this island and i always bump into her. i guess she knows where the best spots are too….

FROM DOWNTOWN HONOLULU, HAWAII….

good evening. dawn patrolled pipe and ehukai this morning and was surprised to see jun jo, todd mitsui, trinko, dane kealoha, egan inoue, dane isono, angela maki, yumie, aoi koike and the rest of the bodyboard chicks out. i guess everybody knew where the spot was…. i surfed pipe/backdoor/ehukai and then took some photos of the action. it was cloudy but so what. everybody was ripping!!!

jun jo knows when to show up to surf. and when he shows up, he not only surfs, he kills the waves!!! he was ripping hard on his kelly slater custom shaped surfboard….

coco ho just came back from australia. she surfed the first WCT of the year and placed 3rd. you know what that means? this young girl is ranked #3 in the world right now…. how’s this turn? oh my gosh… style, power, and grace. look familiar? yeah, kelly slate kine….

angela maki was the only longboarder out in the morning. know what that means? sit on the outside, wait for a good wave, and go. she caught so many good waves this morning….

todd mitsui was always underground and still is underground. he comes out of nowhere and rips harder than anybody else….

yumie, yumi, and chi-chan were surfing at pipe this morning. then they came over to ehukai for some action…. photos coming tomorrow…. good night…
