Masaru-san, Hiyo-kun, and Manami-chan wanted to surf the north shore too. it was their first time on the short board, and first time to the north shore.

then the boys wanted something bigger and challenging so we went to much bigger and much more challenging laniakea. i was so stoked to see Kaneko-san catch so many good waves on his new 6’4.

of course i had to catch some too. there is no way i would let a wave pass me up on the north shore.
\n\"screen-shot-2017-01-01-at-11-44-34-am\"<\/p>\n

Ray-kun was super nervous in the beginning and wasn’t catching too many waves. so i told him “hey, if i say go, you just go. i don’t care if you fall, just get back up and keep on trying.” then one of the biggest sets of the day rolls in, i yell “go, go, go!!!” Ray-kun turns around and paddles into one of the best waves of the day. when he paddled back out, i seen the biggest smile of happiness in this kids face.

then we went in and starting talking all about our wonderful session on the last day of 2016. a day we will remember forever.

then as we left the north shore, i told the boys “hey, it’s ok to sleep. i know the adrenaline took so much out of you guys. i was once there. you guys did a great job so it’s time to relax!” two minutes later, father and son were sleeping like babies. haha. as for me, i was happy to be a part of that amazing day of surfing and family bonding. i was smiling all the way home! an awesome way to end an awesome year. good bye 2016 and hello 2017!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
