had an awesome time with Takahashi-san and the boys. just super kind and cool people from japan. stoked on hawaii, stoked on surfing, and stoked on aloha.

Kouta-kun did awesome. great balance and great control.

Keito-kun did awesome too. he never gave up and kept on paddling till he couldn’t paddle any more.

Takahashi-san is another person i met that knows me better than i know myself. he even knows my friends better than i know myself. most of the things i write on my blog seems like 20 years ago. time just flying by but i’m glad people are still interested in my crazy lifestyle. thank goodness for my blog or else i’d forget my whole life. haha.

and once a surfer, always a surfer. great surfing Takahashi-san.

surf, then sightsee right after this.

but before that, we had to talk on the beach about our crazy surf session. it was very challenging and very fun!

thanks boys for this beautiful windy day. look at the coconut trees in the back bending from the strong west winds. abunai! keep on surfing!
