omg, i’ve been taking this Father and Son surfing since the kid was 5 years old. now they’re surfing together. i set out early this morning to get the perfect photo of them i’ve been trying to for the past 8 years. when i came home, i couldn’t believe how perfect it was! sorry can’t post it for privacy reasons, but it’s in my top 2 of all time Father and Son photos…
Mr. Rainbow wanted to greet a colorful man back to Hawaii!
welcome back Asayama-san!!! so happy to see your smile again!
we paddled out this evening and the new South Swell showed up early. that means it’s going to get big and last for a very long time!
last time Asayama-san came to Hawaii, i sucked at foiling. no way i would even attempt to foil near him. but now, things are different. so today i set out to get the perfect foil drone shot!
and here it is! Asayama-san surfing so comfortable right off the airplane. imagine freezing cold in Japan a few hours earlier, and now enjoying Summer like conditions in Hawaii. look how beautiful this wave and ride is!
one of the guys asked me how i do this? i told him, “it’s all about trust.” if we don’t trust each other, either one or both of us will get hurt badly. you can’t tell by this photo how close i’m foiling in front of Asayama-san, but it’s pretty dam close.
welcome back Mr. Rainbow! get ready for a wonderful 2 weeks of colorful waves, stories, laughs, and experiences…
and if you haven’t heard by now, Kelia Moniz is back on the World Tour! i guess she got jealous of watching her younger brother Seth getting all the exposure. haha. Kelia is back after 4 years off tour, and now she’s going with the flow. and when Kelia goes with the flow, she is dangerous…
