\"\"<\/p>\n

went out to Waikiki for a free dive lesson. i know a spot where there are big smart fish so we went to visit them.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

when i jumped in, i saw them all there! the smart fish!
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

the Mu’u is the hardest fish to spear in Hawaii. they must have a big brain because they know how to keep a safe distance from you, and they know if you have a speargun or not. so it’s hard to get them to come close. and if they come in this close, you have one for dinner.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

there are several techniques that i teach free divers. and if you follow those techniques, you can get the Mu’u to come this close.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

the water was clean, the fish were all over, and it was very peaceful. this free diver is training to catch her own Mu’u someday. hopefully someday soon…
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

came back in, grabbed some longboards, and picked up Michi-san for Boot Camp day 3. waves were so fun!
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

when you get nervous, you forget everything i teach you. never ever panic and go on your knees like this!!! this is how people get hurt so that’s why i’m very strict about it. so after yelling at Michi-san, she never did this again.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

and then her surfing got even better.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

this is safe surfing, and this is happy times.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

then went to pick up Fujii-san for a late afternoon session. after we came in, i couldn’t believe it when he told me he was 77 years old!! OMG!
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Padang Padang contest is into the semi-finals. so stoked to see my 3 boys still going. Bol Adi Putra, Mega Semadhi, and I Made Widiarta all use to stay at my house when they came to Hawaii. they were kids back then so good to see them grow up to top Indonesian surfers. go boys!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
