The surf report forecasted 3-5′ today. \u00a0BUT, like I always say, “never believe the south shore surf report.” \u00a0Bowls was almost flat so I got back in my car and left. \u00a0![\"\"](\"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/GPTempDownload-10-800x450.jpg\")

I had a feeling it might be small so I threw my foil in my car just in case. \u00a0Headed out to Waikiki to surf with the Uncles. \u00a0Uncle Clarence riding a wave while Uncle Mark paddling out. \u00a0Nice sharing waves with you Uncles! \u00a0![\"\"](\"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/GPTempDownload-11-800x450.jpg\")

I haven’t foiled for a very long time. \u00a0First time this year and all my equipment was corroded. \u00a0I wasn’t even sure if I could fly again. \u00a0But when I took off on my first wave, I pumped into another, and another. \u00a0My first ride ended up being 5 waves. \u00a0I was so stoked! \u00a0So good to feel so free again. \u00a0It feels like I have the ocean all to myself!![\"\"](\"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/GPTempDownload-12-800x450.jpg\")

I’ve never felt the current out at Waikiki so strong before. \u00a0The wind was blowing one way but my boat was pulling the opposite way. \u00a0I was checking one of my motors and had to hang on for my life.![\"\"](\"https:\/\/go-naminori.com\/kirbyfukunaga\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/GPTempDownload-13-800x450.jpg\")

These are the days inexperienced people get swept out to sea. \u00a0It was like a river flowing straight out to sea. \u00a0It was hard to even hang on. \u00a0Please be careful out there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
