look at the new ratings! Seth Moniz is 9th in the world! he’s even above Kelly Slater so now he has a great chance to qualify for the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo! that is crazy to think he has a chance on his first year on the Tour!!! Go-Seth!!!maybe some more future olympians? this is one of my all time favorite photos ever. Eitaro-kun and Yuko-chan sharing this special moment together. surfing and family doesn’t get any better than this… i miss you kids! Mateus keeps on telling me that he wants to go to Mauna Kea again. i think the main reason is because he wants to see Jason Momoa “Aquaman” again. so after we came down from the mountain, we jumped in the pool and i was teaching Mateus how to be like Aquaman. he was so cute holding his breath under water… my shoulder has been very painful for the past week. i tried everything to try to make it better but nothing worked. i went to the doctor yesterday and he told me to take a break… i usually don’t listen to my doctors, but this time i will. so i’m going to take a break for the next 2 days. i’ll be drinking a cold Big Wave beer watching the sunset. maybe pick some opihi or maybe just do nothing. hope to be back feeling better…
