Small Kid @ Backdoor…

255

good morning. 15 long days since the earthquake and some people are still in the dark. dark with no electricity, and dark with no information. so many surfers have been asking me when they can surf again. i really can’t answer that because i don’t want to say “GO” and find out there is radiation in the water, or another tsunami comes. i wish there were more information available. but once i find out, i’ll let you know. keep strong and keep going forward….

hey tomita-san from Yojibay in Niijima. i’m glad you got your tshirts! keep strong and keep your beautiful smiles going! namiki-chan, nagi-chan, and mayu-san, WE ARE ONE!!!!
**i’d never think the day would come when my nephews take their surfing to another level. from diapers, to swimming in the pool, to surfing baby queens, to kewalos, and now to the north shore. they all got their taste of barrels and i’m so proud of them. here is josh moniz getting some pretty nice barrels. i still can’t believe he’s still only 14 years old. josh, uncle is proud of you. watching you surf backdoor with so much confidence blows me away. i still remember the day you didn’t want to surf 1′ kewalos with me because you were too scared. keep on charging boy!!!
