Dawn before Dawn Patrol

250

gosh, i left Hawaii only 3 days ago and it seemed so long already. thankfully we have photos to remember our super early dawn patrol session. or should i say dark patrol season. we were in the water in the pitch dark.

Akane-san caught the first wave. it was a very long ride!

Seiji-san getting better and better. surfing so comfortably.

Yamaguchi-san going backside. smooth progression.

Nozomi-san on some nice ones. super nice style.

when we paddled out, it was only us. couldn’t believe how empty it was.

more waves until the sun rose.

surfing and smiling. the best feeling in the world.

the beautiful drone photo. haha.

thank you Okinawan boys and girls for the super fun session. i made it to the gate 30 minutes before my flight left and almost missed it. but hey, it was well worth it! enjoy surfing and see you guys again!
