after a few adjustments and lots of me yelling from the side, the boys surfing turned into perfect form. Uemine-san has been surfing for 18 years and he said this was by far his best session ever! i was so stoked to hear that.

and the boys first cutbacks ever. Hirata-san kept on paddling back out with the biggest smile on his face. i didn’t even have to ask him how his last wave was. haha.
