i heard Kelia was back in hawaii for an autograph session at the new quiksilver store at kahala mall. i went to see her and i couldn’t believe how many people showed up. fans everywhere! there was even a long line and security guards making sure everybody waited their turn. i guess you can say she’s become a superstar!
the line went around the corner. people wanting her autograph and photo. i’m so proud of her!
one girl even started crying when she met kelia. i thought that only happened in japan?
#KM2 stands for Kelia Moniz 2 World Titles.
the line stayed long for a long time.
and of course her favorite uncle had to get his. haha. after i took a good look at this photo, i had to look again and again. this is what you call style and grace. this hang ten is unbelievable! i’ve never seen anybody ride the nose like this before. wow!
after i left kahala mall this afternoon, i drove by the the beach and found a little perfect spot, nobody out, and super fun! so i grab my longboard and paddle out for an awesome evening session all alone. i could have short boarded today but i only had 45 minutes and wanted to ride a lot of long waves. so the longboard was the call! thank you Yuki-san and Inaida-san for the photos!
windy conditions continue tomorrow. if you time it right, you might be able to find some perfect waves too. see you in the water.
