good evening. wow, so many bad things been happening here in hawaii. found out today that the surfer who got attacked yesterday by the shark on the east side was a friend, todd murashige. i was out lighthouse today surfing when danno told me about the news. pretty shocking!! the shark got most of his leg and had to get surgery last night. wendell told me that todd was in good spirits so that’s good. todd, if your reading this, please take care of yourself. think positive and you’ll pull through this. i wish you a speedy recovery. i hope i wake up tomorrow and hear some kind of good news…. so much crazy shit happening these days. i haven’t thought about my life like this since i was born….
**this past weekend was the barrels users contest at ikumi beach in shikoku. i love going to that contest because everybody is really happy. good feeling and good vibe. ishino-san does a good job taking care of his customers and has been doing it for years. i’m super stoked to be a part of the barrels family…. sorry guys, i wish i could have had a couple beers with you at the barbecue. i was all drugged out on tylenol and if i drank a beer, you might have had to call the police. it just wasn’t me. but wanted to say congratulations to the competitors and finalist. great job!!
