ok, waves finally getting better on the north shore. still not the best, but better than the past month. i was running around the island today getting things done. and of course, watching the contest from my iphone.
i couldn’t believe how good Seth Moniz was surfing!!! OMG, 16 years old and blowing the competition! he once again posted the 2nd highest score of the whole day, a 9.17 ride! the commentators and spectators were amazed by his surfing and tube riding skills. both waves making the highlight reel of the day!
Seth doesn’t hold back at all. after getting picked on by his 4 older siblings his whole life, he don’t take shit from anybody now. he was just going 100% on every wave. i was screaming while watching it again!!!
yup, the little guy beating the rest of the big boys. he’s been on top of his game so far and if i were in his next heat, i’d be nervous. watch out world, this little boy is on fire!
then it was Isaiah Moniz’s turn. yet another great performance leading the heat from start to finish. yes, i was screaming again!! Isaiah is a very smart competitor with big smooth turns that suits sunset very well.
after the heat, they interviewed Isaiah and he said he was nervous after watching his little brother Seth surf so well earlier. that was funny. anyway, wanted to congratulate my 2 young nephews for representing hawaii in a positive way. you boys are shining and the whole world is watching you take down the worlds top pros. keep on going, give it your all, and never look back! i’ll be watching you!!!
Hiroto Arai got into the contest as a last minute alternate because world champion Joel Parkinson got hurt free surfing pipeline. Joel had to go by ambulance to the hospital. hope he’s ok. anyway, congratulations the lone japanese surfer that’s going to round 3. great surfing Hiroto!
before i buy something, i try it. so i went down to the dealer to test ride the exact motorcycle i want. will buy one the day i get back from my trip and the first place i’m going is deep into the mountains! can’t wait!
