i wasn’t planning to go to the North shore today so i woke up at 5am which is late. i was just about to drive to Diamond Head to foil when i got the call from “The Lion King.” he said “come to the North shore now. i want to see your progress.” omg, i instantly got nervous! he wanted to see how i tow in foil, and more importantly, how i drive the ski now. of course i was nervous but i had to be calm because this Lion is my master teacher. as calm as i was, i still made big mistakes. so big that if today was 20′, it could be life threatening for him, and me. so when i was driving home, i had a lot of time to think how to improve. today’s lesson will help me get stronger and wiser. sometimes the ocean won’t give second chances so i was very humbled. now all i want is to get better and better…
it was a short training session but i was hungry enough to eat a whole chicken. today was 20% physical and 80% mental. i’m going to rethink the whole session before i sleep and train my mind to become more ocean minded…
