taking out kids surfing is probably the most rewarding thing i’ve done. their just so pure and innocent. i’ve taken over a hundred kids surfing and i remember each one. it’s like i’m living my childhood memories again. till this day, i remember the first wave i caught when i was 6 years old. i remember riding the white water at haleiwa just as it was yesterday. so reliving the moment is always fun and i think these kids will remember their first wave for the rest of their lives. this is Marine, he broke his finger a few days before we were supposed to go surfing but he still wanted to go. we went out, we caught so many waves, and i’ll remember this day forever!
when i first started taking kids tandem on my board, a couple of them fell off. now, i got it mastered and if you ride on my board, you’re in a safe place. we surf together, we fall together, and we laugh together.
check out the shaka on the right, and the broken finger on the left. classic shot!
Marine’s dad was out surfing with us. i’m sure he was a proud and happy father to be surfing with his son here in hawaii. with the ocean, the bond just gets stronger and stronger. keep on surfing!
