last, the biggest wave of the day comes in yesterday as Oshima-san and i are waiting on the outside. we call it the “obake set” and it was about to break on our heads. at the last second, i yell “throw your board and dive under!!!” Oshima-san throws his board, dives under, and comes up laughing. next time he comes to hawaii, we will get bigger waves, bigger smiles, and louder laughs. haha.

this year is supposed to be an El Nino year for hawaii. that means light winds, and more rain. that means glassy surfing conditions, and perfect fishing and diving conditions. i’m not complaining.
photo
Bobby sent me this photo asking me if this is real? yes, the fish is real, the fishermen are real, and most important, the photographer is real real good. the fish just looks bigger than it is because it’s in perspective of the fishermen. closer so bigger. good photographer.
