**matchi is one of the first guys i met when i went to japan. we traveled around this world over all these years and had some pretty awesome experiences. matchi’s from one of the most beautiful island in japan, called shikoku. i was there this spring and shot this clip of him talking about my board and stuff about hawaii. i asked him to speak in english so my friends in hawaii can understand what he was saying. because in japan, everybody already knows who matchi is. and if you don’t, i’ll give you 5 words that best describe him. kind, driven, funny, happy, good surfer, traveler, friend, shaper, surfer, and one of the warmest hearts you will ever meet. oh, that was more than 5 words. i guess it’s impossible to describe matchi in 5 words. he’s just too nice of a guy…. check out his interview….
