\"\"<\/p>\n

Yesterday Bowls was super fun on my 5’10 shortboard. \u00a0Thank you Alan for the water shot. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

From fun chest high waves yesterday to double overhead heavy waves today. \u00a0I surfed with Roy Kanazawa this morning. \u00a0The waves were big and beautiful at Waimea Bay. \u00a0We had the spot to ourselves this morning. \u00a0SO LUCKY! \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

It was Roy’s first time surfing Waimea Bay so I wanted to see if he could find the take off zone. \u00a0From the very first wave, he figured it out. \u00a0Very impressive because Waimea is very hard to surf, especially on a light and thin 7’2. \"\"<\/p>\n

Really good style and really good rail to rail surfing. \"\"<\/p>\n

I waited in the inside and told him to paddle out to the peak. \u00a0I thought it would be a good experience for him to be at such a magical and powerful surf spot all by himself. \u00a0This is where wave knowledge is important and for a 22 year old, it’s very very good! \"\"<\/p>\n

Roy is a top Japanese pro surfer and has dreams to be the best. \u00a0He’ll get there fast with this kind of surfing.\"\"<\/p>\n

I gave Roy top priority on every wave he wanted. \u00a0I just took the leftovers like this, which was still pretty good. \u00a0You really can’t see how big the sets were because of the waves in front that are blocking it. \u00a0But OMG, the sets were big! \u00a0I rode a 7’4 and it felt way too small. \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

We had a great time this morning. \u00a0After surfing Backdoor the other days with a hundred surfers out, this felt good. \u00a0It felt so connected to be at such a place that has so much history and culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
