i picked up Oogane-san from his hotel and in the 2 minute drive to the beach, i asked him a couple questions. right then, i knew what level he was on, and i knew that he wanted to up his level as much as possible in our session. so we started from the beginning, then progressed wave by wave.
i could tell Oogane-san is a very smart man because he listened carefully, processed the information, and had instant results. by the 3rd wave, he was surfing perfectly!
i kept on coaching him from the side and watching his surfing level turn up a few notches on every wave.
by the end of our session, we switched boards and Oogane-san was surfing super good, and super confident. he caught over 30 waves and rode them as good as you can. look at this beautiful wave, style, and confidence. this is what surfing is all about!
last wave in for the day. thank you Oogane-san for the awesome surf session. you did great! and all the time, we were wondering where everybody was? the waves were the best it’s been in a very long time! perfection!
