Round 1:  A perfect day for a boat trip.  South swell, no wind, and clean conditions.  

And head high barreling waves.  OMG, the best day of the year and nobody out!  Three hours of freedom and happiness…

Teaching my grand nephew how to hunt.  

Today we cleaned and prepared the kole.

The best deep fried fish in Hawaii.  A local favorite.  

Catch, clean, and cook.  The basic fundamentals of hunting.  

My dream is for all my grand nephews is to be independent and learn how to survive.  This is the start.  Now let’s eat!!!

The lost buoy!

Good morning 3:45am.
Ala Moana shoulder high and perfect.
Diamond Head head high and perfect.
No wind so perfect morning conditions.
Sunny and warm.
Going to the sea.
Have a wonderful day!

Round 1:  The waves were so good this morning!  Shoulder high sets and absolutely perfect conditions.  Check out this amazing sequence of Shigehisa-san.

He’s only been surfing for 4 years and already has great style.

One of my best photos of the morning.  Look how good that magic 6’0 Trinx flows.

His first time surfing in Hawaii and loving the ride.

Round 2:  Family time out in the ocean.  Teaching my grand nephews how I fell in love with the ocean.  I hope they will someday too.

In this crazy world that it’s become, I’m now determined to teach the next generation how to survive.  When I was growing up, I never thought that you will need hunting skills to survive.  But now, I truly believe you do.  I use to recommend to all the kids to go to college and get a good education.  Now, I recommend to the kids to learn how to survive.  This is the best education for the new future.
