In order to become a good water man or water woman, you must try everything that has to do with water.  Shortboard, longboard, free dive, paddle, or just snorkeling, everything matters.  Even to be able to see in the dark is important too because sometimes you must go by feel.  That’s the path we’re all taking. 

Gosh, it’s been like this every morning for months.

If you put in the time and effort into anything you do, you can do everything.  This girl has done that.

We’re practicing everyday and getting closer to our goals.  Never say never.

The morning take off…

Good morning 4:45am.
Ala Moana knee high and clean.
Diamond Head waist high and good.
Light trade winds at 15mph.
Sunny and warm.
Going to the sea.
Have a wonderful day!

Had a super fun time with Murata-san yesterday afternoon.  A super happy and energetic young woman. 

We saw a lot of turtles swimming around.  Another good luck day ahead.

Murata-san surfed super good and wanted to ride bigger and bigger waves.  We went all the way to the outside to wait for the sets and that’s when a lifeguard on a jetski came and told us “hey guys, there is a 10′ aggressive tiger shark here now.”  So we caught a set all the way in!

Peace!  Thank you Murata-san!

Woke up early and was riding waves in the dark again.  Super clean and fun waves good for the longboard. 

Then Round 2 at Diamond Head.  So good!
