Boy becoming a Man

 had a beautiful morning with the Harada-san family.  it’s been a year since we surfed together so i was looking forward to see how Sora-kun was.  last year we tandem surfed and this year he wanted to do it all by himself.   this was the end of his very first wave alone.  look how happy he was!  haha.  so cute!!! Sumie-san hasn’t surfed since last year but she didn’t forget a thing.  super nice riding all morning! Harada-san was cool and calm.  enjoying the ride from start to finish… Sora-kun started catching waves on his own!  i was so happy watching him grow in the ocean.  he’s only 12 years old and a very smart kid!   thank you guys for the wonderful time again!  i love surfing with you guys!  there were turtles everywhere!  so cool!  some kids are nervous in the ocean, some kids are confident.  Sora-kun was confident and loved every moment of every ride. Papa was also very confident and happy!   a wonderful surfing family!  great job guys!  then i grabbed lunch, grabbed my foil, and met Carter for our high tide foiling session at Bowls.  i couldn’t believe how perfect the waves were again!  another happy day in paradise!
