in the pitch dark, i saw this couple light a fire lantern and let it go in the air. the thing was flaming and who knew were it was going to land. what if in a boat? what about the rubbish in the ocean? come on guys, use your brain! 
the weather has been absolutely beautiful. 
and the conditions have been absolutely perfect. i feel like i’m on a knife slicing into butter…
thank you Benji for the photo. this is a huge knife jaw i shot and gave to my cousin. he was stoked! 
check out these 1988 Hawaiian Pro/Am Circuit final ratings. Tony Moniz was #1 in Hawaii! and look at all those legendary names. back then, i was still an amateur competing against Hawaii’s best. my goal was to make it into the Top 16 so i was stoked to make it. the following season, i was seeded into all the main events. good old memories…
