Ryosuke Kosaka joined the Go-Naminori team last year. he hasn’t been to hawaii before so this was his first experience here. if you want be part of the Go-Naminori team, it’s a requirement to come to hawaii and experience the “Aloha Spirit.” i had fun 2 weeks with Ryosuke and i’m stoked to see him surfing and enjoying all what hawaii has to offer. it’s time for him to go back to japan so i just want to tell him something. “hey Ryosuke, hawaii is always here for you. your welcomed here anytime. keep on surfing, keep on working hard, and all you tropical dreams will come true! thanks for everything.” aloha.
Takagaki-san is also going back to japan. a fire fighter surfer that i totally respect! keep on saving lives, keep on surfing!
