wow, had an awesome day yesterday with Rikita-san, Ton-san, and Nori-san. once again surfers who just want to get better and better. they came to the right island, and they came to the right guy that will push anyone’s limits. we jumped into the ocean at 8:45am, and came back out at 1:30pm. we surfed non-stop wave after wave, totaling 80 plus waves between the 4 of us. everybody getting better and better each wave. it was awesome!

Rikita-san came to hawaii about 10 times but this time was the first time he surfed here. he turned newborn surfer last year and got hooked. now there’s no turning back for him. he will live a happy and healthy life forever!

Ton-san is also hooked on surfing. after she caught her first super long wave, she paddled back out and said “omg, what is this???” i don’t think she knew there was such a long wave like this that existed. haha. welcome to your first reef point break!

speaking of diamond head, Nori-san kept on smiling all day long. he said “wow, i can’t believe we are surfing and diamond head is right there.” yes Nori-san, only in hawaii! Nori-san blended in with the locals at bowls and caught some good lefts. he was so stoked!
