it’s been a pleasure seeing this wonderful family every year for many years. and it’s been so cool watching the kids grow up so fast. say hello to the happy Aida-san family! 
Yuuki-kun is still 15 years old but as tall as a man! so stoked to see him surfing so good backside! 
Rio-kun is 11 years old i think? getting older and getting braver. 
and turning right in front of the cameraman. Paul Teruya shot these beautiful photos. as for me, i paddled out with my gopro and it was filled with water. haha. another $400 wasted…
so lucky Paul was there to capture the magical moments. 
and this photo is freaking magical! 
i took the boys out to the main peak at Bowls and they were catching sets. and they weren’t scared at all! good job boys!
i just love teaching kids how to enjoy the ocean. and i just love enjoying the ocean with the kids. oh, when my gopro filled up with water, Yuuki-kun was laughing. so was i. it’s so weird because the last time i surfed with them, somebody stole my camera from my car before i could upload the photos. so those photos were lost too. but thankfully, Paul captured that days rides too. so weird huh? 
thank you again to the Aida-san family for the wonderful years of surfing!!! hope to see you guys again!
