what’s up guys, i went for a surf the other evening at corner’s and met okinawan photographer yoshinobu nunokawa. super cool guy with a pretty cool blog he updates everyday. so if you want to see the surf and action in okinawa everyday, this is the blog to check out.

so we were there talking story on the wall when this girl came and sat off to the side. yoshi-san told his friend, “wow, i like the way the girls hair is blowing in the wind”. i was like “huh?” now i see the photo, i’m like “wow”. he’s got the eye. if i took a photo of the girl, it would have probably would have zoomed up on her ass. haha.. just joking. but i was there that evening that image tells the story…. you guys don’t know what your missing by not coming to okinawa. it’s starting to feel like home here….

goodnight kazuma. sweet dreams of surfing.

good evening. stuck here in paradise trying to make a decision. stay? or leave? absolutely no swells on the way so no waves anywhere. next destination is shikoku but i would punch myself in the head if i leave and another typhoon forms near okinawa. i want just a little more blue water barrels before heading to river mouth action. keeping my fingers crossed, my bags packed, and mind clear to make the next move. and nobody decides that except mother nature. see you somewhere….

u-ske is one of the most artistic photographers in the world. he’s the type of guy that can take just his fisheye lens and capture the most amazing photos. i was in awe when i went to his gallery back in shonan. from surfers, to waves, to birds, to just anything, u-ske’s photos tell a whole story. now you lucky go-naminori users will be able to see more and more of u-ske’s work through his blog. so wanted to take this time to welcome u-ske to the official go-naminori bloggers….

it was march of 2008. off the wall was 6-8 with 10′ sets and it was pretty much u-ske and myself swimming out there. i will never forget that day because between sets, we’d just be laughing and saying how epic the waves were. then when the freak sets came, or faces would be like “oh shit”, better get the hell out of the impact zone. swimming in the impact zone on days like that is pretty much putting your life on the line. that’s u-ske putting his life on the line. athletic and artistic, that’s u-ske…
