Yesterday afternoon was so fun.  We got bored of the small waves in town so decided to do something different.  Dangerously different is Sandy Beach.  A newborn photographer capturing these moments.  It’s been a while since I went underwater so my first dive felt like I was reborn.  

No Swimming?  Yes, no swimming for inexperienced people.  Sandy Beach is one of the most dangerous beaches in the world.

Lots of broken backs, broken necks, and other broken bones happens when these waves push you right into the shallow hard sand.  

Never turn your back to the ocean, especially here.  Always be alert for the waves, currents, lifeguards, and others.  

Then back to Bowls this morning where the ocean is so calm compared to Sandy Beach.  So calm that you can walk over water like this.  

Both of the girls getting better at everything they do.  Pushing each other to higher levels, and laughing after each ride.  It’s like we’re having a party every time we surf.

First rain on the East…

Then a rainbow on the West…

Good morning 4:05am.
Ala Moana knee high and clean.
Diamond Head waist high and bumpy.
Trade winds up to 25mph.
Sunny and warm.
Going to the sea.
Have a wonderful day!

This morning we took out the longboards and practiced the cross step.  Doing this over and over will create muscle memory, then the next will be going to the nose.

The girls taking turns over and over wave after wave.  They both must have caught over 50 waves this morning.

Diamond Head on the left, surfing in the middle, and a rainbow on the right.  This photo has it all.

I also teach the girls never to fall at the end of the wave.  Falling at the end just doesn’t look good.  Pulling out like this looks a lot better.

The past few days have been so perfect to long board.  Everyday we learn, everyday we challenge, and everyday we laugh.  It’s like our little private party in the middle of the sea.

Round 2 was at Sandy Beach shore break.  It was challenging, interesting, and humbling.  So much energy and power of the ocean crashing down on the shallow shore break.

Last, people will do anything these days for a click on social media.  What is this world coming to?
