The dark early morning takeoff.
Rio-san surfing into the golden moment.
Absolutely perfect surfing.
The sky turns blue. Smaller board and looser rides. Keep on surfing Rio-san. Go Blue and Gold!

Seth Moniz is cool! 
Early morning take off. 
When I was a teenager, my favorite backside maneuver was the “layback.” The coolest thing is watching the barrel coming over your head from behind. Hundreds of barrels and 40 years later, I’m starting to do it again. Thank you Neal Miyake for the Bowls shot!
