Round 1: \u00a0Another beautiful morning here in Hawaii. \u00a0The temperature is getting a little cooler and the water is getting a little cooler too. \u00a0But it’s still paradise!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I’ll be using my all 2mm wetsuit more often from now. \u00a0It keeps me so warm! \u00a0We did a session of Boot Camp and my student from Japan is getting better and better. \u00a0She’s camera shy so I won’t post any photos of her.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Round 2: \u00a0Perfect weather in the afternoon. \u00a0Not too many people in the ocean and nice little waves. \u00a0An all 1mm wetsuit is perfect for this!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I told my student over and over never to look at me when I’m riding on the side taking photos. \u00a0And of course she looked. \u00a0Haha.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Almost another surfboard nose in my face. \u00a0Everybody please stop looking at me!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Japan was super cold and so was the water. \u00a0When it rained, it was even colder than cold. \u00a0BUT, if you’re a Japanese surfer, you surf no matter what. \u00a0Surfing in a full wetsuit in the cold weather is hard core. \u00a0And riding a bike to and from the beach? \u00a0OMG, I respect these types of surfers so much. \u00a0I tried this type of surfing twice in Japan and I thought I was going to die twice. \u00a0Lots of respect for all you Japanese winter surfers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
