Every first day of the year I make sure I’m in the ocean before first light. \u00a0That’s always been my ritual because I feel like that’s the only place I want to be in for the rest of the year. \u00a0Year after year.\"\"<\/p>\n

So starting off like this on January 1st pretty much explains how my year will be, which is watching every single sunrise from the sea.\"\"<\/p>\n

This was my first wave of 2023. \u00a0It could be a 10′ barrel or a knee high glassy wave. \u00a0I’m just grateful to be a surfer. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

Hiro-san got to experience my yearly ritual and he seemed to love it. \u00a0Riding your first wave of the year into a sunrise like this is pure joy. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

Another good day on the surfboard.\u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

On the way in we saw a turtle right under us in the shallow water. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

Then she popped her head up right next to Hiro-san. \u00a0That means good luck is on the way. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

Then went back this afternoon with my A+ student with his new board. \u00a0I was super impressed with his improvements. \u00a0He’s a living example of how a magic board could change your life…\"\"<\/p>\n

Then the day ended paddling in this afternoon \u00a0after 2 wonderful sessions with 2 amazing surfers. \u00a0So far, this years has been perfect!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
