Go-Naminori Interview: Glenn Minami….

300


i turned on the webcams in hawaii today and seen small waves, rain and onshore winds. it kind of made me happy… haha… then i checked the news and seen this photo on the front page of the newspaper. “stuck in paradise”….. what???? because of aloha airlines going under, hawaiian airlines is overloaded. a lot of people seem to be stuck in paradise. i wouldn’t be complaining one bit…. i wish i was stuck in hawaii right now.. haha… i wish i could be in 2 places at the same time. i love hawaii, and i love japan. i wish i could be in both places at the same time… surf in hawaii and eat in japan? now that’s a dream life…

everybody in this world knows who glenn minami is. and everybody in this world has probably once in their lifetime ridden one of his boards. or has one in their collection. glenn is from hawaii and has been shaping for 40 years. he has shaped boards for the best surfers in the world. glenn’s in shikoku right now shaping for TSSC. we were hanging out and thought i’d shoot a little video interview to introduce the young generation who this legendary shaper is. glenn’s only here for a few more days so if you want a board, now is your chance. i got my orders in. glenn also has an interview in this months “Surfing World” magazine. check it out!!!

**by the way, wanted to thank shin-san from wavy surf for the bottle of sake….. kanpai!!![:??????:][:??????:][:??????:]
