No Fear, Only Smile

The South winds came as expected but the waves were still fun.  Not as clean as yesterday, but not as crowded too.

Ooki-san got so much better in the 2 days we surfed.  Looks a lot more calm and doing nicer turns.

Smooth transitions and lots of flow.

The perfect back view.

Nojima-san flying by me going down the line.

I love riding behind and watching the boys enjoying the ride.

Nakahodo-san smiling and feeling very comfortable now.  I guess after surfing some big powerful waves at Waimea Bay, all the fear is gone.

The boys exchanging words, laughs, and waves.  This is surfing.

Thank you boys for the amazing morning session!

Round 2 coming soon!
