good morning. 6:15am and my phones been ringing all morning. got a call from a friend living in front of a secret spot on the east side telling me the waves are going off!! 3′ and barreling!!! i’m looking right now and there are both north and south swells with perfect conditions…. 8 guys out at pipeline right now. it’s 4 and perfect out there. see guys getting backdoor barrels. town is 3′ and coming up with 18 guys out at bowls already. gosh, the waves are going off and i wasn’t going to surf until my trip but i just changed my mind. i’m going surfing!!! have a nice day and see you in the water…
**check out more photos from yesterday….

**china women’s longboarding event coming up june 13 and 14th…… get your entries in….

good evening. i called my sister and kelia last night to have them meet me at queen’s this morning. it’s been a long time since i’ve been out there and i always have fun shooting them. my sister pretty much catches any waves she wants out there. i don’t know why but nobody drops in on her, or even paddles for the waves she goes for. maybe because it’s because her big hawaiian husband is out there too? i think so….

it’s been sooooo long since i seen kelia longboard. she’s hooked on shortboarding now and really doesn’t practice longboard anymore. there is a big roxy jam coming up this summer in france and it’s her chance to become women’s world champion. if she practices everyday until then, i’ll have to put my money on her. she’s just too dam good. when kelia surfs longboard, she’s like dancing on the wave….

and the women stand up paddle boarders out there now days? ripping it up….

these two japanese tourists didn’t listen to their own government telling everybody not to travel to america. i don’t see any swine flu around here…. enjoy hawaii, enjoy life….

and last, kelia got a magic longboard that she’s claiming it’s her best. i wish i could fly to france this summer and watch her kick some ass….. go kelia!!!
**i took 500 photos yesterday and got so many good ones. more coming tomorrow and the best coming out later….
