yesterday early morning was the best haleiwa i ever surfed, or even seen in years. absolute perfect conditions! when you see haleiwa barrel like this, you know it’s as good as it gets. red buoy, red board. cool!
and yes, you have your crazy moments too. abunai.
Ezekiel Lau came out and showed why he is one of hawaii’s top surfers.
seen this chick ripping! nice bikini turn!
Ross Williams and i were talking story on the beach about the conditions. Ross loves haleiwa and haleiwa loves Ross.

and yes, Kai surfs fast just like his dad.
was stoked to see Kaori-chan paddling out. another girl who loves to challenge big waves in hawaii.
i seen this girl ripping and didn’t know it was Kaori-chan until the end of the wave. so i got the end of the wave. sorry for missing the beginning Kaori-chan.
Ryota on a few good ones too.

8:30am sharp is when the lifeguards starts to work. so you shouldn’t be in the water before that unless you are experienced.
