it’s been raining every morning so the nicest rainbows are right in front! driving to work following the rainbow is a great way to start off the day.

today was graduation day for Hashimoto-san so i took him to bowls. watched him catch right after right, set after set, surfing perfectly. 100% more confidence and 1000% cooler.

i took some photos on bigger waves but my gopro files had a virus??? i think water got in again. bummer. but hey, i saw every wave Hashimoto-san caught, and he felt each and every ride. and that’s what’s important! awesome surfing dude!

after each and every wave, Hashimoto-san came back out with the biggest smile on his face. i could tell he was so stoked. we went in, then he went to get his flight back to japan. another hard core surfer. see you next year! and keep up the great surfing!
