good aloha friday morning. 5:15am and it feels like the roof of my house is going to fly off. gosh, it’s so windy outside. can barely see the waves but i think i seen a 3′ set peeling perfect at bowls. going to check around and figure out where to do our huge photo session today. i was looking back at some of the galleries i took this summer and was pretty stoked. yesterday was the icing on the cake. got good photos of everybody. i think after today, i’m putting my camera in my suitcase and going to start to pack for japan. shit, i’m so excited to go. heard the sandbars are set up, the food is there, jacksan is waiting, and i’m finally going to be able to relax….. hopefully catch up on much needed rest… shun and i went out to lighthouse yesterday evening and the waves were pumping. after shun caught 2 waves, he tried to duck dive a set and it pushed him down to the reef. i think it freaked him out because he paddled in after that. today’s another day… see you in the water….
for all you shun fans in yugawara, check him out trying to do a huge floater yesterday. we were watching mick fanning surfing the j-bay contest live yesterday and i think he got inspired. you got to try it if you want to do it…
what a cute kid… shun’s favorite international surfer, taylor knox. shun’s favorite japanese surfer, mar ono. good choices….
