welcome to winter season in hawaii. yesterday was the first North wind day and boy was it cold!!! rainy, cloudy, dark, and cold. i ended up staying in my house all day and all night. didn’t even step out my door. still cold today but this is just the start. if your coming from japan, i’ll give you a few winter tips.
\n1. bring a long sleeve shirt.
\n2. bring a jacket.
\n3. bring a wetsuit. a 2mm long sleeve top is best.
\ni know it’s not as cold as japan, but it’s pretty cold for hawaii. i love this weather! good surfing and good diving days are coming soon!
\nas for the surf on the north shore, one word “Terrible.” i think the south shore is better. haha.
\nlast years first good swell came on november 15th. this year, it’s looking like it’s going to be really late. 15′ perfect pipe won’t happen this month, maybe in mid december. but if you forgot what pipeline looks like, check out this video i shot. i still remember that day. big, crazy, dangerous, and lots of people. i’m going to do my best this year to make it out to the first big day of 2011 at pipeline! see you out there!
\nby the way, this video got 1,670,347 views so far. and my youtube account is over 5 million views. i started youtube to show a few friends some clips and now things got a lot bigger than expected. i’m pretty stoked on that! and hey, if you are an artist that wants me to use your music, please let me know. it’s a great way to promote yourself and it won’t cost you a penny. everything on gonaminori youtube is for free and i swear to you i ain’t making anything on it. it’s my hobby! shoot me an email if interested. mahalo.
