had an amazing time with Saori-san yesterday. she a long boarder and didn’t think she could shortboard, but i knew she could. so that’s why i only took a shortboard. she had no choice. and once she caught her first wave, she was having double the fun!

towards the end of our session, Saori-san didn’t want to go in. she wanted to surf and surf.

i told Saori-san, “the only way in the water is to jump off the cliff.” so she jumped!

it’s the second time i took her free diving and i could see her getting better and better. more relaxed and better form.

this is a popular fishing spot so when ever i dive, i try to clean up the ocean littered by fishermen. lead is not good for the ocean!

in 45 minutes, i found all this lead. felt good to get a good workout and do a good thing for our precious ocean.
