I get up, check the waves, and it’s very very windy and onshore. \u00a0Normal surfers go back to sleep but not us. \u00a0I knew Abe-san was up to the challenge so we paddled out early in the morning as nobody was out. \u00a0The waves were challenging, but the sky was amazing.<\/p>\n

It was really hard to choose the good waves but Abe-san is very experienced. \u00a0He knows how to go with the flow and that’s what he did. \u00a0Nobody came out the whole 2 hours we were surfing. \u00a0Yes, we had the whole ocean to ourselves!<\/p>\n

For the past 15 years or so, Abe-san’s been coming to Hawaii once a year and we surf once. \u00a0I would bring a 10′ longboard for him. \u00a0Then year after year, we surf again on that same longboard. \u00a0So basically he surfed once a year only in Hawaii. \u00a0Then this past February, he asked me about my magic short board. \u00a0This smart man got one, started surfing in Japan once a week, and is totally hooked on surfing again. \u00a0When he took off on his first wave, I was totally surprised! \u00a0He was so good!<\/p>\n

Now Abe-san is very energetic, lost a lot of weight, gained muscle, and looks 10 years younger.<\/p>\n
