This is Speed

We were expecting the waves to drop from yesterday but as soon as we got out, it started getting bigger and bigger.  Shikama-san riding some big ones.

I paddled on the top of the waves and shot photos looking down.  Pretty cool angle of Shikama-san going left.

The girls are pushing each other to their limits.  They were looking for the biggest waves today.  I was impressed.

It’s so crazy how fast you can go if you have the right surfboard.  Speed is what we all look for and this is speed.

Shikamo-san with the best waves of his life today.  He was stoked.

Round 2 this afternoon was fun.  Boot Camp cutback practice going good.  It’s only 5pm but so sleepy.  Goodnight.

Is Hawaii Beautiful?

Round 1 was at Bowls.  Big and good.  Sorry no photos.

Round 2 we drove 1 hour searching for the perfect wave on this crowded Sunday afternoon.

Checked my secret spot and nobody was out!  Only us riding every and any wave we wanted.  I forgot how beautiful Hawaii was!

I grew up surfing this wave so it’s like going back to my home.

Every wave is pretty much identical.  Take off, bottom turn, and hit the lip!  So easy!

Can’t wait for tomorrow.  In bed at 6:30pm.  Goodnight.
