good morning. 7:15am sunny monday morning. got tons of things to do so better get going. oh, north shore is flat. town has waist high waves with weird conditions. maybe get better when the winds kick in more. you know where the spot is today? waikiki… yes, waikiki was as beautiful as it gets yesterday. get out a longboard and enjoy. enjoy weaving between the hundreds of tourists and beginners out there. i seen some guys do it and it looked pretty fun. i even seen the canoe run over about 3 guys on every wave they caught. or better yet, get some binoculars out and watch the action. action in the water and action on the beach. waikiki is the bomb and now i know why everybody loves that place…. have a nice day….
gosh, how fast did a year fly by already? it seems like yesterday when i went to the 22nd TSSC users contest. i’ve been with TSSC for over 13 years and haven’t missed a contest yet. it’s just too much fun… surf with everybody, talk story, live entertainment, choke beer, and cherry blossoms. this years contest is happening on april 6th and i ain’t missing it. this years going to be cool. tony and seth moniz are coming with me for the contest. we’re going to fly into tokyo, jump in tokura-san’s car, and do a drive thru japan. surf, eat, have fun, and just enjoy the culture. i can’t wait!! of course we’re going to shoot and video it too. seth is going to be culture shocked… just like how was. except, seth is only 10 years old. i’m so happy because i can see his face when he sees things like colorful mountains, raw food, and some of his fans asking him to take a photo with him…. haha.. i hope he’s practicing his autograph…. it’s going to be fun….
this was looking into my room at last years party. the cherry blossoms were at full bloom….
and this contest brings my sponsors together. this is ishino-san (Barrels), tokura-san (Dove), akazawa-san (Spice), and me (Jack). haha… gosh, what a great time we had…. hope you can all make it this year because it’s going to be awesome….
