Good Windy Aloha Friday….

288

good evening. been having trouble with my new cell phone. the technology is just too much for me. still trying to figure things out but i just don’t like to input text with it. too freakin small keys. anyway, just got back from a long day. check out some photos….

the contest was on today and it was pretty boring. the waves were 3-4′, windy, and crappy. if there wasn’t a contest today, nobody would probably be surfing. that’s how junk it was. went to watch a few heats and they finally cancelled it at 12pm. good call. there are no waves for a while but i think contest surf forecaster bernie baker can see something way out there. japan is freezing cold now so we shall see. but so far, this has been the worst season in hawaii for waves, and also the worst pipeline masters ever….

brought the boys back with me to town today. the waves on the north shore was super junky and will be worst tomorrow so we’re going to have some fun in town. just as we were getting in my car, somebody called me. shit, it was Mega…. i didn’t even know he was here. he said he came yesterday and will be here for 2 weeks. check out mega’s 50 Cents hand sign. bali gang style…

when we left the north shore, i asked the kids if they wanted to sightsee on the way back to town. they said yes so we took the long way home around the island…. stopped by perry dane’s house on the way to check out his new boat. and to check out some surf spots and dive spots. next time those south/west winds come, i’m there… i don’t think these kids realize that north shore local perry dane is most japanese pro surfers nightmare. when he paddles out to backdoor, off the wall, or v-land, it’s better to paddle in. but maybe now, ryota and shun can get a wave from him…. check out the kids shaka’s…. learning fast….

we came back to town and had time to get in a session at kewalo’s. it was windy but the waves were head high for the boys and fun. there was only 2 other surfers out when they paddled out. they were getting barreled and having such a great time. then carissa moore paddled out and pulled a sick backside 306 right in front of them. the were surprised to see a girl surf that good. and surprised that carissa spoke japanese to them. later in the session, carissa told me that those 2 kids surf really good. i think so too…

and last, here are the kids taking photos again. cool rubbish cans… haha….
**well, gotta get going. have a great evening…..
