had a great time in shikoku. been going there for the past 23 years straight. gallery up soon on Go-Naminori.com. check it out. here is a little preview. it’s a huge job to put together a big contest every single year. 180 competitors this year so lots of work. perfect planning by the TSSC staff. great job Yassan, Tomoko-san, Kesuke, and the rest of the wonderful TSSC family.
great kid. known Kesuke since he was very young. now he’s a husband, father, hard worker, and surfer. good job growing up Kesuke.
shaper Mike Woo and i went to preschool together. been friends ever since and will be friends forever. Satoshi Kubota i met 23 years ago. another long time TSSC pro team mate and a super great guy.
over 4 years later and there are still a few people that didn’t forget about 3/11. We Are One! so stoked for the years of support.
Kenji Sahara. a surfer, photographer, and friend.
was so stoked to see TSSC rider Shun Murakami ripping it at ikumi. very impressive surfing that keeps on progressing.
very grown up. so stoked to see this kid living out his dreams.
Matsuo is another great friend of mine for the past 23 years. more like a brother to me. one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. and an awesome MC.
Nakajima-san probably has been with Dove Wetsuits the longest. i think 30 years??? so if you know Dove Wetsuits, you know Nakajima-san.
i just love shooting photos of anything, especially nature. isn’t this an eagle? we don’t have these in hawaii.
a great smile, a great man, a great boss, and a great heart. thank you again Yassan for all the years of support. great job on the contest and great job on your 60 years of life.
