Waterfront Night view

Omaezaki this evening 

        Not so much going on these days , even to take photos is being hard to think about . The cold has arrived , no waves for a while . I am using this time to take a rest and sleep a lot . I wish a nice holiday to everybody and nice a trip to the lucky people that can fly away from the cold . Aloha .

Winter Surf

Omaezaki Beach this Monday

        The wind was so strong all day long , good for the wind surfers but not very exciting for surfing . Anyway this Omaezaki local surfer challenged the wind , the cold and he tried to surf , but the wind didn't give so many chances to him . However his effort was commendable . Gambata .

Trying hard

Xmas in Japan

Christmas Boat - Omaezaki Japan

         Japan is World famous for its fishing activity , this boat decorated with Christmas lights is the biggest symbol of Christmas in the small town where I live . I wish to everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy new year . FELIZ NATAL e PROSPERO ANO NOVO .

The Brothers

Key Watanabe

        This brothers are really cool , We were trying to do something cool out there , but hard to get day off at the same time or find waves when we finally have day off together . Well here goes our first try . See you later . Tchau .

Yuta Watanabe

Never mind the size , Key always find a way to fly .

Windy

Trying to find somewhere protected from the wind .

        The winter has arrived in Shizuoka , and the strong wind today made me drive to Hamamatsu beaches trying to find somewhere protected from the wind . This photo above was the best I could find , the wind was strong but the waves were alright , small but good . looks like that is going to keep the same conditions for tomorrow . Good luck to you if you  face the cold and the wind out there . ALOHA .

Strong wind everywhere

Slow.....

         After a big Sunday , the surf started really slow on Monday and just got smaller in the afternoon and even worst this Tuesaday . This week the temperature dropped a lots , Winter has arrived , however  during the day was sunny and not so cold . Time to go to sleep . Boa Noite Amigos .

Inside the bay

Somewhere inside the bay

            All the Japanese coast was blessed by God on Sunday and the surf was great everywhere . My choice was close my town in the other side of the bay . I wanted to take more photos , but my body boarder side spoke louder , so I was  all  long the day  body boarding like the old times ( my best session since 2009 in Japan ). Anyway before get in I took some photos , so check it out . I wish everyone a nice week . Tchau .

Waves to everybody 

Wave Check

Shizuoka Area this Sunday

        That's how I satarted my surf this Sunday , driving around , searching for the best spot . The waves were nice everywhere truly , but I was looking for something special . I was not motivated to take photos , I just wanted to find a place to can body board by my self in peace . But it was hard to find , seemed like all Japan was around here today . Well , here go some photos of my wave hunting today . Aloha .

Unbelievable......

             I went pee and I found this wave , in a place that I never could guess it was possible to surf . Two brave long boarders were out there , however the waves were taking so long to came in , what made ​​me give up about surf overthere , I don't like to wait that long .

But....

I could have tried my luck out there , nobody around and some really nice waves .

Like Summer

Another beautiful day in the Pacific .

       Today the day was beautiful and warm like Summer . Unfortunately no waves , but it was nice to walk on the beach with nobody around , just my self and the sun shining on the ocean . After walk another day of hard training in the pool , and some sushi to recharge my energies . looks like some swell is coming this weekend , wait to see . Time to go Work now . Tchau .

I love Sushi :) .

Friday Surf

Omaezaki Area this Friday

        Waves were really good today around all Omaezaki area  , the consistent and continuous off Shore wind all long the day kept the waves nice and clean from morning until evening . Most of the time raining and cloudy , but water is still warm , so a 3mm wetsuit was more than enough . Lucky day , ALOHA .  

            I was lucky for be not working today , spent all day long bodyboarding and some few photos in the end .

            The strong current helped to keep the surfers that only hinder the surf away from the peak , NICE :) .
