Golden Day and Golden Night…

229

wow, 3 rounds of surfing today! another golden day and golden night…

started off with these 3 young surfers from Tokyo.

Hiroko-san only surfed a few times but surfed like she’s been surfing for years. look how calm and happy she is!

many rides for this energetic girl!

Yumiko-san only surfed once before but she said you couldn’t really call it surfing. haha. so today was her real debut and it was amazing.

many long rides and this girl is now a real surfer.

Ishikawa-san was on the outside all morning as we were watching him ride some nice waves. super smooth guy that’s stoked on surfing.

there was a contest happening at Bowls so we stayed on the rights. only a couple guys out so we kind of scored!

last ride in which was Ishikawa-san’s longest one. last long ride means shorter paddle in. smart guy.

ate some hot pho and got really sleepy after.

dropped the sleepy surfers off and headed straight back to the beach. ended up surfing twice more and now i’m as dark as i will ever get. haha. thanks guys for the wonderful day!

in the past 3 weeks, i saw Toda-san’s highest times, and also his lowest times. in foiling, only the strong survive. and once you get past the lowest times, life only gets better. good job Toda-san! and keep on foiling in Japan!

had a small celebration last night. it’s Toda-san’s birthday and he just turned 3 weeks old! yeah, because 3 weeks ago, he was a born again foiler…

life would totally suck without my close friends. i always think that when i’m driving home with a big smile on my face. thank you guys and girls for just being real…
