First of all, I want to wish all the women in the world “Happy International Woman’s Day! \u00a0Today I was trying to be nice to the girls and they didn’t like it. \u00a0I was complementing their mistakes and they knew that was bullshit. \u00a0Haha.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
We all had longboards so we paddled over to a super shallow reef. \u00a0So shallow that every wave had a barrel. \u00a0And since nobody was out, we got to practice and practice.<\/p>\n

I was on a 11′ longboard showing the girls how to get barreled. \u00a0Then I sat in the channel and watched them try.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
It’s really hard to get barreled on a big longboard because the board goes too fast. \u00a0The trick is to slow it down. \u00a0I also didn’t allow the girls to wear leashes today. \u00a0The reason is to be aware of your surroundings.<\/p>\n

All good barrel riders know how to drag their hand in the wave to slow down for the barrel. \u00a0So that’s what we practiced today. \u00a0And wave by wave, the girls started to figure it out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I’m 100% certain that these girls will be good barrel riders very soon. \u00a0And when they get their first barrel, their life will never be the same.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
This morning was a very low tide. \u00a0So shallow that your fins will hit while riding a wave.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
And sitting on your board, your feet will hit the reef. \u00a0Watch out for the sea urchins!<\/p>\n
Round 2 at Diamond Head. \u00a0Fun waves, uncrowded, deep, and very peaceful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
