AA is for Akila Aipa

209

 left really early this morning to go experiment with surfboards.   Carter and I combined must have ordered 20 boards just in 2019.  we are experimenting and learning so much about surfboards… these are 2 of Micah’s twin fins.  Akila Aipa has been making really good twin fins that most top professional surfers in the world are riding right now.  so yes, i am very interested.  went to a spot where nobody was out so we could ride empty waves and try new boards. passed by Bowls on the way back and must have counted a hundred surfers scattered out throughout Rock Piles.   since Micah let me borrow his board, i dropped it off to him in the parking lot and gave him a ride back out to the lineup.  that’s the least i could have done for my little Nephew.   then took a spin down and hung out in Waikiki during sunset time.  such a beautiful green flash… then looked at Diamond Head right before dark.  still some overhead sets and looking super good.  tomorrow will have waves again for sure.  our Summer swells aren’t done yet.  yeah! Naoka took this photo of a typical day in Molokai.  once you come here, you won’t want to leave… Toda-san is back to catching sakura ebi.  i’m sure while he’s fishing, he’s dreaming about foiling.  haha…
