Life is Good and I am still enoying life one wave at a time.
I installed my new used quad set, remember I showed you the picture yesterday, were you paying attention?
I made um small so you look at the fins.
I got out early, took one at SO, one at ML, before I BeeLined it to BL.
Dam, I got caught again chasing juviniles on the inside and got ambushed by the set waves, not a good way to start off my session.
I hanged on the inside and picked off the ones that dean & Leighton let go, and after a couple waves, I zeroed in the new set up where I was flying across the waves like Carrisa Moore, well maybe not exactly like her but that is how I felt.
It gave new life to my SV, very responsive and seem to loosen up the board. Now, my reflexes has to be sharp to handle what this set up has to offer. Even at me feeling 80% today due to being under the weather, I felt like I was SUPing at 110% :o
can you tell I had a good Morning? and I didnt even drink a cold one last night.
Love the set up, I think we are Fins 4 Life!
Stay home tomorrow, going be flat and Konas, but come on Sat because going be good!
I pick this up on Craigs list for cheaper than it was listed, Now I feel like paying him Full Price because I really Like Um!
wat you tink?
Pretty Yah? da color match too
As I was leaving today, this was the last set waves until Saturday
and again, Sorry, I wasnt blessed with a BIG LENS like JonnyBoy
First of all, I did touch the water at all this weekend, on Saturday, was to dangerous and I didnt want you to go to my funeral and cry all over my SUPcasket and I also had a very important task to do later that morning and didnt want to screw up my friends wedding that morning. Sunday, I woke up at 7:15, drank too much beer and good red wine. In a way it was good to rest, my whole body benefited from the rest. I am sorry to disappoint my fans this weekend by not hitting the water, I will try not to do it again.
I got up early today, felt a bit under the weather but I must not be that bad, I still feel like cracking some greenies last night.
Mini Disastah of the day, it actually turned out a blessing for me.
Got down to K-land early, me and fake bonga waiting at the gate, we waited until 5:15 and bonga panicked and told me he is headded to park at the park, I followed him, from the "A" lot and thought about stopping at the "B" lot, but, was too far and I never like spend $$, so, i headed for the "C" lot, that was the right choice today, I weaselled my way to park right infront of Dean, I probably pissed off one of the regulars, Excuse huh, I am only visiting and my name id JonnyBoy
I B-lined it straight to BL to find epic conditions and still had 2-3 footers, I just hanged on the inside after a while, I was running on 75% power today, the early sets was draining me fast today, the inside was nice too but, I got caught a few time chasing down some Juviniles insiders when the big boyz started rolling in, I got my SUPass kicked a few times today. Still yet, good fun, spent my whole morning at BL, good thing I applied for my Dual SUPcitizenship passport, will let me enter K-land and da Park.
I will let you look into my Future, take a peek
Wat U tink? Nice huh? Pretty huh? Sorry about the back ground, I needed a white background and this is all I had.
1. I experienced the Camera Syndrome today. You know Wat dat is?
It is when someone on the inside has a camera and is waiting for you to catch a wave and then all of a sudden, flat, no waves, Nada, Lull.........Deeno was waiting on the inside so snap a few pics of us and he just killed it. I had to Beg and Beat down a shortie just so I could have a small one for da fotoshoot, No worries, I going give him one good one later.
2. Leash got snagged at Rens, almost got into deep kim chee, I used my paddle to chip away and smash up the coral head to break free, no tell da coast guard or DLNR now
3. I did give ML paul a nice wave and he made some lame ass excuse why he didnt catch it, He then gave me a close out set and I caught it. Then it took me 5 minutes to fight my way back out again, I think I got shamed on that deal! Das okay, he did compliment my Meat! ..............No not dat one, my Prime rib roast I made for Faddahs Day Stupid!
I think das all i get, oh yah, wea is thomas?
Got down Early but, not early enough, the door @ BL was already unlocked, Dam! Maybe I got to Start Parking at da ParK
I was kine of disappointed this morning, I was expecting BOMBS, I mean BIG BOMBS but, only had small kine bombs, still 2-3, and long lulls. I did have a few good ones before the crowd came out. We had time for some SUP chit chat and I found out that two of the SUPr's snapped their leashes yesterday, I found out that the board that I almost bought if I didnt buy the C4 SV, doesnt handle that good in bigger waves, he told me that it was kind of "sketchy" in bigger surf. I can honestly say that the SV handles well in big surf, I just have to reprogram the operator.
I found out later that today was actually the leftovers from yesterday and that tomorrow will feature a whole new set of entrees <- Is that the correct Spelling? Any Poonahoe grads out there? Paul? no shame
Jonny, Get your duck ready for some rock and rolling,
Here are some pics from today
Look close, Kado going Right on his last waves
A shot of SO for Jonny
Giligan, is that you?
She Looks Guud!
Mahalo and Kudos to Nelson for learning how to do a cut back and not running me over a few dayz ago, Now he got LockDown, turning and CutBack, Not bad for a sponger turned to SUP then surfer
NELSON.........OUTSIDE!
Just got confirmation from KadoWacky that He did see me with his Telescope from his house in the Mountains at BL this Morning. he told me exactly what I did on my 1st two waves. Got Dirty Lickens on my 1st lefts and got caught inside and took a right the next wave.
FYI - I tried to do something different on my first wave because, I really wanted to see if he could actually see me. I even stayed extra long under the whitewater and foam and I had to pull myself up for air using my leash. and he even saw me get worked by the two set waves in da back.
Last night, I wasnt feeling good, headache, sore and itchy ear, that Dam ear infection is back. After dinner I used the drops and watched "Ice Road Truckers" almost as good as "Deadiest Catch"
Well anyway I was "Visualizing" How I was going catch and ride the BomBs that was coming in on this swell, it is big Difference trying to ride a wave that is twice your height versus a ball busting teaser. I got down early this morn and to my surprise Jonny was in da lot! We when gurl talk too much and I was almost late for my Big Dance Date @ BL inda park. I booked it to BL and already had 5 guys out Dam! I wanted to be the one to turn on the lights there. Any way, was good fun, a little slow, long waits but the 2-3 footers came in nice, both Lefts and rights and wave had Plenty Juice!
I saw a set wave coming in and I paddled out for it and took it at its peak, went Left just like my "Visualization" dream I had last night, Made the bottom turn, looked back up and rode it back up to the lip and shot it back down, wow, just like my Dream and in fornt of all of Courts to watch, I was looking for Dean and hoping that he took my picture and then I hit a speed bump and got tossed off and small kine face plant Again! Dam! I think I got to visualize finishing the wave too tonight. that wave made my day Happy Happy!
After that I headed back to my HomeLand to check on Jonny and da gang surfing on the reef. Not Bad, I only saw one Irregular at SO. I went in early after a few waves at SO, the thrill was gone already after that wave at BL, I think I shot my Load on that waves, got to Reload for Friday.
Took some pics today, with my small kine digi Cam, check it out
Disastah of the Day
This Map Show the South Swell hitting Oahu, Neet Huh!

Move your face close to the screen and you can see Russo on his SUP, nice wave and no drop inns
Whitewater in da Park
BlowJob with waves? Go for it! Das wat had today, had a steady NE wind that made it easy for me to paddle out and had some 2 footers coming in that wasnt wind swells. Water was a lot calmer than yesterday, had a good local crowd of regulars, no irregulars today. I was winded a few times huffing and puffing and barely enough time to catch my breath and another waves comes in and you no me, I cant leave anything for waste, I caught it for Jonny since he is abstaining from getting his duck wet in da ocean this week, he is my Idol! I was tired, hungry and cold so I was in at 7 to drink my coffee and eat my cereal that kumu said looks like cat food, Meow mix.
Hear is a pic for you Jonny, it is everybody trying to make "Waikiki" Wes on da SUB
Sorry no more telephoto, just move your face closer to the screen works too
Update on the Theft problem, had some breakins last week, the car that was stolen was because the thief probably saw him hide his key in the gas compartment. Now all the point guys parking by us
K-den
tomorrow going be flat, no need come down, I take picture for you ;-)
For those of you that park in K-Land, sorry I forgot to add this in yesterday
If you are the type that Like to be blown and jacked 1st thing in the morning then, today was your day. Two knucklehead with board and paddle were the only ones out this morning at SO. Tom Took most of his pleasure on his Knees, "$#!&@^^@ Style" and I took it Like a Man, actually SUP'rman Style, Standing. It was tough out there, steady double digit off shore blowing, constant chop, bumps and lumps. waves were wind swell action, 1 to a small 2. I almost got Tattooed again on my other arm but, i made a quick turn to avoid entering Limu's Tattoo shop, that was a close one. I did my hour and we waited until New J and Tattoo paddled out and we went in. Stay home tomorrow, not worth the rising price of gas
Mondays Report, If you are the kind of person who like to get blown off 1st thing in the morning then today was the day for you. Windy, small, but real challenging, good work out. Tomorrow going be worser so no come, No worry, I will let you know when get guud! Trust me ;-)
Sunday, Faddahs Day, I rested and didnt get close to the ocean, You see, I dont go everyday!
This is what I did for Fathers Day, Brunch at The Counter, das da burger place in Kahala Mall, It was real good, I had a nice cold glass of Drop Top Amber Ale, never heard of it before, oh yah, the burger was good too. Check it out, mine is the one with the cooked onions on top, to the left.
The Onion Strings were da best, got to eat them while they are hot
For dinner, I made this killer SUPrimed Rib, Mahalo to Lele for cooking instructions, Killed a bottle of White and Red wine too, Buggah was Winnahs!
I cooked it a little too long and lost some of the pinkness, I was trying to burn the outside, Still tasted very good, and super tender.
Das My Fathers Day, Oh Yah I also got the QuickSliver Boxers I wanted too
