good morning. it’s all about dawn patrol. i got my housing, my video cam, my still cam, my fins, and my goggles. i’m going to try to shoot some underwater world photos and vid. on the north shore. stay tuned…

seth is growing faster than the weeds in my back yard. every year, he’s outgrowing his boards so every time i go to his house, i pick up the boards he doesn’t ride anymore. i have a bunch at my house and now it’s time to sell some so he can order a new quiver. so if you kids out there want to surf like seth, shoot me an email and get his used boards for pretty dam cheap. you can ride it, or you can collect it because when this kid becomes famous, his boards will be priceless… as for shun, i got seth’s magic boards on the side for you to ride when you come to hawaii….

good boy seth. wax on… wax off…. now you can be the next karate kid? haha…
**what i love about go-naminori is meeting wonderful people around the world through this site. in the past 5 years, i’ve met the coolest people that have become really good friends. most surfers, and most with a positive attitude towards life, and our environment. meet ryo kubota, the main man for the surfrider foundation hawaii chapter, a college student at UH manoa, very smart, and very very nice. we’ve been getting so much requests on an environmental section for go-naminori and ryo kubota is the right guy. born in japan, ryo came to hawaii to further his education. he speaks perfect english, he surfs, and he dives. so i just wanted to take this time to welcome ryo kubota to go-naminori!!!


ryo is also an excellent photographer. check out this amazing photo from the north shore of hawaii. check out ryo’s blog for updated Surfrider Foundation news from hawaii both in english and japanese. awesome!!!
