i get home yesterday and felt like a kid that got some new toys! i’ve been waiting for these babies for a very long time. getting it ready for my first surf is always so exciting. thank you TSSC and Matchi for making me so happy!

first thing, Sex! i mean Sex Wax! the best wax for the job. there are all different types of wax for different water temperatures. for hawaii, the 6X Extra Hard Tropic or Basecoat is the best.

it goes on really easy and forms nice beads. i never get bored waxing a board up.

non-toxic wax in a recyclable package. that’s so eco and i love it. thank you Maneuverline Japan for keeping me stuck to my stick!

ever see these huge busses? these buses drive all the way out to the Polynesian Culture Center on the other side of the island. some of the bus drivers drive nuts! kind of scary.

then when i pulled up on the side and seen the bald tires, i freaked out! omg, bald tires on wet windy roads? that’s an accident waiting to happen!

when ever i go to wahiawa, i always eat at my favorite local restaurant. super simple and super local style. you won’t find a single tourist in here.

i ordered the chicken cutlet for $8.50. so delicious!
