February 28, 2010 Pipe comp and good times

The TURBO Pipeline contest has ended and it was an epic event. I made it to round 8 and tied for 25th place. My good friend Amaury Lavernhe won and I'm super stoked for him. After about a month on Oahu, I'm finally back home on Maui and it's awesome! I missed being home. The forecast is looking good for waves here on Maui so I'm getting pretty amped. Lastnight we had a BBQ with the Foam Company team and Richard Pata and his family. Thank you to Alisha and Carey Kayama for the grinds and good times. Check out The Foam Company in the Maui mall. It's the sickest Bodyboard shop here in Hawaii. Allkines of good stuff. LIfe is good :) aloha


Pristine sunset at Alamoana somehow.

February 21, 2010 North Shore

It's been fun on the North Shore. The waves have been good and the weather has been awesome. A lot of my friends are here for the contest so it's cool to chill with everyone. The first day of the TURBO Pipeline contest went off and the waves were average with a lot of great Bodyboarding action. TURBO is the main sponsor of the event and it's sick that they give back so much to the sport! The contest will be finishing this week so check out www.fluidzone.com.au with live webcast and updates of the event. Life is good :) Aloha

February 16, 2010 Family is everything.

So it's been awhile since I updated my blogg, but this past week has been awesome. My family and Robin came down to Oahu to participate in the Great Aloha Run. They all stayed at my brothers place which was nice because I haven't seen them in two weeks. They are the best and I'll do anything for them. Somehow my mom and dad are still here on Oahu because they want to watch the TURBO Pipeline Pro which will run sometime this week or next week. Depends on the waves and conditions. There has been a lot of family dinners, BBQ's, and good times. The waves have been sick as well, but it's been super crowded. It's all good though, I've managed to get some fun waves out at Pipe, Backdoor, and OTW. Saturday was the T&C Alamoana promo and tons of people showed up which made it sick! This weekend has been amazing and the forecast is looking good for the TURBO Pipeline contest so stay tuned for that or you can check out www.fluidzone.com for all of the action. One more thing, www.surgebodyboarding.com just launched so be sure to check that out for some sick stuff. Life is good:) aloha!
