my new boards have been ready for pick up for the last 2 weeks. but been too busy to drive to wahiawa to grab them. today, i had a 2 hour break so i flew over to grab my new babies! can’t wait to try them out!
i was watching the waves all day long. morning was super ugly and junky, but i knew the winds would turn offshore right after this cold front passed. then at 3pm, it happened!
the waves started to clean up. cleaner and cleaner by the minute.
next thing you know, it was barreling with some huge sets!!! i threw my boards in the truck, went to surf queen’s because i had a feeling. i knew the morning was ugly so most surfers went home. and when the winds turned around, it would be empty. and yup, that feeling was right. it had to be the most empty and perfect queen’s i’ve ever surfed. it was full on barreling! i got a nice barrel on my last wave and drove home pretty dam happy.
know this girl? the hottest tennis player in the world. Maria Sharapova is the highest paid women’s athlete in the world. making about $30 million each year. not only because of her serve, but because of her complete package.
anyway, she just failed a drug test. you know what that means? yes, bye bye sponsors.
bye bye Porsche.
bye bye Tag Heuer.
and bye bye Nike. this poor girl just lost $30 million per year of sponsorships. ouch! a great learning experience for all you young kids out there trying to make it big. stay clean, train hard, and your dreams will come true. one mistake like this, your life will be over in a flash. it’s not worth taking the chance because eventually you will get caught. NO EXCUSES!!!
