good windy sunday morning. 7am and my house feels like it’s going to fly away. back in october when they forecasted a windy hawaii winter, they weren’t joking. i can only remember a couple no wind days. oh well.. the swell is still pretty solid out of the north. lani’s and pupukea the spots again today. got some guys out at lani’s and nobody out at pipe yet. town has some east swell wrap in the waist high range. i know where it will be overhead and pretty good today. DH. yeah, diamond head. windy but fun. just watch out for those wind surfers flying over you…
the monster pipeline pro waiting period is from today until february 9th. pipe isn’t breaking today to it’s probably cancelled. try again tomorrow. check out the live webcast by CLICKING HERE….
i was checking out my friend yoshi’s blog out and seen this photo. this is a VW engine on a motorcycle. it’s the first time i seen something like this and would love to drive it. i’d probably flip over…. whooooop…. check out yoshi’s blog by CLICKING HERE….
speaking of VW’s. my friend cal has a 1964 beetle. i’ve been begging him for years to sell it to me. in fact, every time i see him, i ask him if he’s ready to sell it. his answer, “no”…. i can understand….
and last, i’ve been eating good food recently. chinese, thai, korean, and local barbecue. but you know what? i really miss my japanese food. the freshest of the freshest lobster sashimi, abalone, hamachi, uni, ikura…. ahhh, i better go, my mouth is watering….
2008 Monster Energy Pipeline Pro Live…
Spy Satellite may Crash to Earth…..
good evening. earlier this morning, i was at home taking my time because the weather was so cloudy and windy. then the calls started coming in. “ehukai is going off and it’s super sunny.” jumped in the car with naoka, picked up allyssa, and speeded my way over. pulled up to ehukai and the waves looked so fun….
i seen some guys taking off up at pupukea and kicking out in front of the lifeguard stand at ehukai. freaking long ripable waves…. had a bunch of people out and every japanese photographer you can think of was shooting so expect some pupukea sandbar issue out soon….
then it was off to ted’s bakery for lunch. took the girls with me. alyssa ordered plain rice and a piece of ted’s pie. kelia ordered french fries. it was cheaper to buy the whole pie so we took it to the dove house to eat it all…. dam it was good…. by the way, ted’s has a new special called kalbi chicken. oh my gosh… if you want barbecue style chicken, that’s the thing to order. it was so good. a lot better than the shoyu chicken i usually order. try it….
the tako wasabi in hawaii is the best. i’ve tried it almost everywhere but i think the best place is the new safeway in kapahulu. it’s so good….. kanpai[:?????????:][:?????????:][:?????????:]
in japanese, we say “atama over.” in english, we say “overhead.” seth moniz, v-land….
**and last, check out the headline news in america today. “Spy satellite loses power, may fall to Earth” what??? yeah, a 20,000 pound space shuttle the size of a bus lost power in space and expected to crash somewhere on earth. when?? late february or march. why?? because we don’t think before we do things. what to do? nothing. you can’t hide….. try to sleep on that one….
Top Pro Surfer in Trouble…
good morning. 7am on this windy windy saturday morning in hawaii. small waves around the island with windy conditions. town’s flat, north shore is flat too. nobody out at pipe, or even at lani’s. and it’s saturday so the waves must be junky. good day to stay indoors and watch a movie or something. or good day to get some work done. what ever you choose to do, have a fun and safe day…..
#17 rated pro surfer in the world Chris Ward is in big trouble. he was arrested outside a bar couple of weeks ago in california after he fought with three women. the police said he punched all three and when they showed up, all three women were on the ground and one was unconscious. he is charged with three counts of assault with a deadly weapon and disturbing the peace. that’s a pretty big charge and he has some explaining to do. according to the ASP rule book, “Any surfer who damages the image of the sporting body, no matter the place or location, is subject to suspension or expulsion from the ASP World Tour.” that’s pretty heavy. will keep you posted. just remember, everybody is innocent until found guilty by a court of law in america. we’ll just have to see the outcome….
and last, doesn’t this look like the happiest couple in the world? i think so….
