it’s always nice to stop by TSSC in shikoku and see the happy faces. i’ve been riding for them for over 17 years and it’s all the magic boards i’ve been getting from TSSC that’s putting me in the best barrel at the best time! thank you Yassan and all the TSSC family.

if you surf in shikoku, you won’t be alone. everybody knows where to go on what swell, what wind, and what typhoon. this day, this river mouth was the best! i’m glad i was there!

good to see young kids going out and challenging themselves. Go-Naminori Blogger Kairi Noro is only 13 years old but surfing man size waves. Go-Kairi!

jun jo, mikala jones, and photographer zak noyle showed up from hawaii on one of the hottest days of the year. if it wasn’t for this bathroom giving us shade, we’d all die of a heat stroke. it was so hot and humid! now i appreciate the cool tradewinds in hawaii a lot more.

want to know how expensive my job is? this is the 8th camera i drowned. it’s like flushing $300 or 25,000 yen in the toilet 8 times. i hope canon or nikon can sponsor me someday. i guess 8,000,000 views on youtube isn’t enough for big companies like that. that sucks.

i guess i wasn’t the only one scoring waves this typhoon. the okinawa boys were scoring good sunabe. check out THE BEACH BLOG for some photos. see you guys next month!!!
