We wanted to do something different today so it’s always going to be different when you jump on Mayuki. So many options.
We stopped at a perfect little wave. The girls jumped in and since I forgot my camera today, I took some photos from the boat.
I’ve recently been teaching the girls how to “split the peak.” That means approaching a single wave and sharing it together. One goes right and the other goes left. Here they are paddling out to an approaching wave.
They turn around and catch this wave. I was watching from the boat thinking “wow, this is amazing!” The 2 girls splitting the peak all morning.
And another wave of one going right and the other going left. This is so beautiful to see!
Ever since I ordered my very first red board 30 years ago, every red board that followed was magic. It’s been my lucky color and now the red is spreading to the girls. Spreading the magic!
Then I went back out for Round 2 with Yoshida-san and his daughter Rico-san. Now this is what surfing is all about. Riding a wave and smiling the whole way!
