If boosting and LANDING were only that easy!!

Thanks to the both of you for making my surfing and surf movies look like complete crap :)   

inspired but now depressed

Some pretty heavy inspiration right here folks! Koa charges, and gives me a bit of anxiety watching this.  I’m ready to go throw myself over the falls now… Maybe not at Puerto tho.

Enjoy

Scored some late south swells on our last trip back home. Mahalos to the milo tree crew and the boys at da bowl for keeping my spot in the line up open!  RIP Dad!

After 3 months on the road “literally” we have broken down.  Our bodies our tired, weak at the knees, missing our own bed, haven’t worked out since…we can’t even remember, but we’ve made it!  Made it to Japan to our warm cups of miso soup and green tea.  In front of us sits our trusty laptop opened to magic seaweed greeting us with little colorful blobs swirling.  The beautiful lake like conditions will be no longer, unpack the massive board bag, screw in those fins, an pull into those perfect right barrels that are just whispering sweet nothing’s to us.  We are in Japan keeping our mind free and their secret spots a secret. Mahalos to the radical Japanese locals who have helped us get this far understanding half of what we are saying.
