Surf/Dive Reports

204


it doesn’t matter if i’m surfing or diving, every sunrise is amazing. it’s the best way to start off the day…

while most of the island is sleeping, we’re moving bright and early. hayato just came to hawaii a couple days ago. he’s ready to surf and dive anytime. brandon’s a pig hunter but not today. the three of us hunted and got some pretty good fish before lunch time…

not too bad for a half/day dive.
estimated value in the fish market? $140.
estimated value of tonight’s barbecue? PRICELESS….

hayato knows what kind of fish to spear. this is a kumu and if you ever been lucky enough to eat one, you would know why this is on the top of every divers list. this is his biggest one so far. enough to feed a family….
today’s dive report: epic conditions in town. glassy, no wind, crystal clean water. 1 shark sighting, 30 turtle sightings. kumu’s, munu’s, roy’s, tako’s mempachi’s, and kole’s in the cooler.
tonight’s bbq report: nitsuke, steamed fish, fried fish, sashimi, pasta, hamburgers, and a lot of ice cold beers!!! [:?????????:]
tomorrow’s surf report: check back tomorrow morning.
tomorrow’s dive report: check back tomorrow morning.

**and last, thank you neal miyake for taking this photo of me at pipeline yesterday. after i passed you by, i pulled into the barrel for 10 seconds, got spit out, did a round house cutback, then ended up the wave with a 360 air reverse.
then i woke up… haha…
