good evening. another great day here in paradise. the waves are around and doesn’t want to go away. headed down to queen’s this morning to meet up with shuji, jun, and photographer kondo-san for a morning photo session. i stuck my camera in my pocket and had a blast surfing, shooting video, surfing, and shooting video. so many of my friends were out so it was pretty cool. the waves were still good and there are more and more south swells on the way. and yeah, the north shore was going off today too. waves for everybody. this is the best summer in hawaii for many years. and it’s just the beginning… everybody be happy and go naminori….
**oh, just wanted to thank everybody for the nice emails. been getting a lot from all over the world and am pretty stoked about it. i really appreciate you guys checking out my blog would do more if i had a secretary. haha… just joking… but thanks again and to all the guys that send me emails about showing more chicks on my blog, go easy. it’s not good for the kids… if you want to see that kind of photos, go buy a playboy magazine…
**anyway, check out the action from waikiki this morning. got some sweet video of shuji and jun rippin it up. and got some sweet video of some hot chicks.. wait, i didn’t say that…. haha… enjoy….

good morning. 6am on this beautiful tuesday morning. there’s swell all around the island. see some epic chest high waves at lani’s. got 3 guys on it already. town is looking pretty dam good too. leftover head high sets with epic conditions. the winds should be coming on shore by 10am so get on it early. i’m out of here… have a nice day….

i hardly eat at mcdonalds. but when i do, it’s mostly for breakfast. check out this local plate with spam, sausage, egg, and rice. $4.68 ain’t that bad. i ate that yesterday morning on the way to surf. but after i ate this plate, i went back home to sleep….

and check out this maguro kama my friend gave me. oh my gosh, it was so good…. and to think, the people in hawaii throw this part away… mottainai…
**and last, i surfed kewalo’s yesterday around 12pm and was supposed to meet my friend carter out. i paddled out and the waves were going off. and there were only 4 other guys out. carter never showed up. after i came in, got a message on my phone. “hey kirby, i pulled up to kewalo’s and when i was getting my board ready, then these 2 guys came in and said that there was a huge shark out there so i decided not to surf. call me when you get in”. wow?? carter knows i’m not scared of sharks but gosh, i’d like to know when i’m surfing with one… haha…

good evening. gosh, i thought the waves were coming down but i was wrong. pulled up to kewalo’s at lunch and the waves were going off. had some solid 5′ sets with only a few guys out. the right’s were firing and so where the medium size lefts. it’s the biggest waves i’ve surfed in a while. and the cool thing about it is that no groms around. everybody’s in california for the nationals so no hungry rats in the inside. tomorrow? same thing, go naminori….
**how’s this. i got an email to my youtube account notifying me that somebody has subscribed to my videos. so i checked who it was. the guys name is ken tanaka who lives in japan. ken makes some pretty awesome videos. it’s a funny way to remember japanese and i’ll try to use it next time i go to japan… check out this classic japanese lesson….
**i’m looking at the waves now. it’s 6:15pm and the winds died down and the whole south shore looks epic. still got another hour of light so get you ass out there….
