had an awesome time surfing with Inoue-san yesterday. a full day of surfing in what it felt like summer. super blue sky and super clean water. so stoked to see Inoue-san catch so many perfect open waves.

nice bottom turn! just keeping the board on the rail is the key to speed.

the best way to teach english is: hands on training. so we got to waiola shave ice and i ask Mako-chan to go and order and pay all by herself. pretty brave for a 14 year old girl but she did a great job. small cup with ice cream, rainbow flavor please. good job Mako-chan.
