hello everybody. welcome to my new blog. i’m still trying to figure out this new system so please be patient. patience is something i can’t do but please try[:????????$B!r(B:] now i have all these fun little stuff i can play around with[:???:] i kind of feel like a chick…. haha…
anyway, i went to the 34th annual bob contest in tokushima, shikoku. it’s always a fun contest to go to. bob-san is such a nice guy. if you don’t know who he is, he’s the one charging big haliewa at first light every winter morning on the north shore. the waves in tokushima wasn’t anything like haleiwa but it was still fun and challenging….
japanese style of starting the contest. everybody comes out of the water for the opening ceremony. i think this is so cool…..
i told you the waves were challenging. i give every competitor in the contest. they were all surfing good and made it look easy. i grabbed a board, jumped in, and couldn’t even stand up….
i went to go sit on the jetty to watch the waves and i felt something biting my foot. these little bugs were all on my foot. what the heck is this? can you eat it? might be good with some butter and garlic….
this is the other side of the jetty. the waves were a little cleaner because the jetty was blocking the wind. but it was a lot smaller too…
this is the tent area. want to try a brand new TSSC board? take your pick…..
this guy drove up to the beach, caught a few waves, jumped back on his 4 wheeler, and was gone. smart guy….
so here’s the deal. your in the final, your heat starts in 3 minutes, the waves are small and onshore, and you only have 12 minutes. i wonder what this guy is thinking. oh wait, i know. i’ve been in situations like this. he’s thinking i can’t wait for a cold beer after this…. [:?????????:]haha..
