i had a fun time this morning surfing with this young husband and wife. it is Yuki-san and Mitsumi-san’s first time to hawaii and i’m glad to have taken them surfing today. the waves were good, the water was warm, and it was a super sunny day. they caught so many waves and it was nice to see their smiles! Thank you Yuki-san and Mutsumi-san for the fun surf session. and thank you Tanaka-san from Deed Surf Shop in Tochigi for introducing this wonderful couple to me. Keep on Surfing!

i was at a park the other day taking a nap between surf sessions. i lay down my towel, i lie flat on my back, i look up to the sky, and i take 10 deep breaths before i fall into a deep sleep. then my alarm rings and i gotta go! fast, but efficient.

another thing fast and efficient is a private jet. i can sit right in the cockpit and see everything. it actually looks pretty easy to fly an airplane and hopefully someday i can. next time i ride in a private jet, i’m going to ask the captain if i can fly the plane for a little while. if he says no, i will fire him. haha. just joking.
anyway, surfed for 5.5 hours today and i’m as dark as can be. tomorrow i’m probably going to surf for 6 hours. yeah!

Thank you Yukari-san!

if you catch a lot of waves, you will smile! great surfing yesterday Yukari-san! I bet in one year, Yukari-san will be catching 30 waves per session!

I met Akaura-san exactly a year ago on a boat trip to komodo, indonesia. since then, we’ve been talking about surfing a lot and the day has finally come! the past 3 days, he surfed for a total of 6 hours. a really strong man, a really nice man, and a really pure heart. i bet you in a year, Akaura-san will getting barreled!

Yuki-san took a big step in surfing yesterday. well, i cross step to be exact. i was surfing on the side of her taking video as she took her first cross step on her new longboard. i bet you in a year, Yuki-san will be hanging 5!

not bad for 3 days of surfing yeah? Big guy, big wave, and big heart. i wanted to thank Yuko-chan for all the help, support, and effort in starting off another persons surf career! Akaura-san, KEEP ON SURFING!

Hare otoko means a person with good luck with perfect sunny weather. Inaida-san has yet to see the dark rainy side of hawaii. every time he comes, it’s paradise! and if you surf in paradise everyday, you will be happy. on this trip, Inaida-san caught some of the biggest waves in his life. i bet in one year, Inaida-san will be surfing the north shore!

surfing is a dangerous sport. just ask the guy who took this photo. hey Kenny, is surfing dangerous? you almost got your head chopped off today. haha.
