good evening everyone. small waves today but super fun. ended up going to diamond head cliffs this morning. trades blowing and still waiting for the south swell. checked it this afternoon and still looking small. hope things change soon because i’m getting a little hungry for surfing…. stay tuned…

pulled up and the waves looked really good. head high with a perfect angle. check out the lines. nice yeah? wish you were here….

when i was checking the waves, i seen this black thing moving on the beach. i looked good and it was a hawaiian monk seal. look good between the trees… went down with a cooler and offered him a beer but he refused. he wanted to sleep and be left alone… i know how that feels….

check out this sick photo james kodama from island snow sent me. this was last years 4th of july party in the ocean and canoe races in waikiki. pretty sick photo. look really good and you can see a guy in white shorts drinking a corona. that’s me…. haha… if you miss this party next year, your blowing it…. thanks james for the killer photo and for the bag of island snow goodies….
**the roxy jam in biarritz started today. kelia went up with carissa moore and i hope they kick some ass. it’s a huge event in france and a lot of people show up to the beach. wish i was there….

good morning. 6:45am aloha friday. where is that south swell?? gosh, the waves are small today. i guess everybody is spoiled so pretty much over it. gosh, feel like surfing…. leaving the house and going to check everywhere. maybe see you out…. oh, 20 guys out at bowls now, and 18 out at the park. i just heard the surf report now and they are calling it 3-5′???? your kidding me…. have a nice day…

ok, here it is again. a must see documentary about the newest nuclear power processing plant in japan. it’s showing 3x in hawaii so no excuses. i’m probably going to the sunday show so hope to see you there….

here’s the synopsis, map, and showing times. all the information you need. it’s our future….
**here’s another shot of the boys the other day. i’ll probably bump into them today again… yeah, hawaii is that small and when the waves are good, everybody ends up at the same spot….

good evening. flat waves is perfect for diving. so off to the east side it was… gosh, the conditions were epic. for diving that is…

glassy conditions on the east side are rare. so when the winds are down, better get on it. yeah, heard there are still huge tiger sharks hanging around after eating that dead whale but it was just too perfect today… i just took precaution and didn’t put the fish i caught on my belt. i kept it far away so if a hungry shark wanted it, he could have it…..

i met randy in hanapaa. he was a friend of a friend and we’ve been diving ever since then. he’s like a kumu magnet because he always catches the big ones. that red fish on the bottom right corner is a big kumu. and yeah, randy caught it…. but not a bad catch for 2 guys yeah?? fish all week again….

flying back is refreshing. my boat goes 26mph and it feels good with the wind in my face… and the fish in the cooler. that’s chinaman’s hat in the background….

i hardly see these. this is a “nohu” or scorpion fish. i heard you could die if you step on one. really? take off the poison fins and it’s all good in the steamer. i love this fish, until it pokes me…. ouch…. by the way, it weighed over 5lbs….
**i was checking the waves in town this evening. it look like it came up. maybe 2 inches? yeah, the new south swell isn’t here and hopefully when i wake up tomorrow morning, it will. but if it aint, might have to go diving again…. waves or no waves, this guy is happy…. i’m going to take a deep breath, and fall asleep… [:Zzz:][:Zzz:]
