**if i had to choose the most hardcore photographer in the world, there would only be one guy, Naoya Kimoto. kinsan has been documenting japanese surfing since it started. he shoots everything and anything if your a japanese surfer. he’s never missed a moment and never missed a shot. ever since hard core surfing started in japan, kinsan’s been there. he’s made japanese surf superstars, he’s made dreams, and he’s made history. without kinsan’s effortless work both on the beach and in the water, japanese surfing would lose a lot of pages in their history book…
