look how beautiful the water is! so clean that it looks like you’re surfing right on the reef.

what is glassy? japan river mouths are glassy. the right river flow, the right wind, and the right swell. the perfect combination for perfect conditions.

Shintaro-san in the most epic conditions you will ever dream of. he was surfing the lefts all by himself.

just looking at any japanese boat fascinates me. so basic and so strong.

when it rains hard, all kinds of things from the mountains come flying out through the river mouths. don’t be surprised if you’re pulling into a barrel and get hit by a 40′ tree. ouch! not the safest kind of surfing for sure.
