Smiling Home…

194

another perfect morning in paradise.  look how beautiful the waves were this morning!!! since i get up at 4am everyday, i’m a morning guy.  Hiro-san is now a morning guy too.  can’t beat this feeling…and to see him super calm is even a better feeling…Seira-chan is like a local surfer girl already.  a little shy but not when she’s surfing.  with the super glassy conditions, it felt like you’re surfing on glass…all my local friends comment on how good Seira-chan got.  they say she’s smooth and surfs beautifully.  thank you boys for the comments and support…Hiro-san is surfing smooth and beautifully now too.  when i first met him last month, my goal as a coach was to get this guy to love surfing even more than he did.  and after this past 4 days of 8 rounds of Boot Camp, he rode over 160 waves, got stronger, and most importantly, gained a lot of confidence.  you can see it in his surfing, and you can see it in his smile.  so as much as stoked Hiro-san is, so am i.  my goal to get him to smile and get him to love surfing even more is total success for both of us.  have a happy flight home…
