Blue Hawaii again!

i did a lot of photo shoots for Flipper Magazine. it no longer exists but i sure had a lot of fun traveling and shooting bodyboard chicks. a few boat trips, a few other trips around the world, great waves, and great memories.

i remember swimming out with my camera to this one pipeline contest. the waves were big and going off! i didn’t want to miss the Go-Nami Girls heats so i just waited and waited. Go-Nami Girl Chiaki-chan came out first and advanced. what a great tube!

then Go-Nami Girl Yumei-chan charging big time! i was so stoked and so proud of these girls representing japan so well.

and yes, Go-Nami was always about bringing people together. mission accomplished!

Technology meets Culture.
Good morning 6am.
North shore 1-3′ and coming up tomorrow. Cleanest spots are around the beach park area. South shore knee to waist high. Bigger at Diamond Head but too windy. Winds super strong trades at 25-30mph.
Clouds, showers, sun, and rainbows.
Going surfing!
Have a wonderful day.
