Southern Japan

Chikako Matsushita - Southern Japan

I spent two days exploring the Southern Japan coast next to my girl Aimi Chan and our friend Chikako Matsushita . Two intense days of surf and photos . I can say that these two days I faced all kinds of waves, big waves, fun waves and barrels . In this post you can check the fun waves session with Chika and some other photos of our short trip , ALOHA .

Typhoon Visions

Omaezaki Japan

After a long time , finally a consistent swell hit the Omaezaki Coast .With few surfers in the water , I swam against the current, dived deep, took several bombs in my head to make this images and some other ones that I will not bring out yet . Here goes what I can show at the Moment , the reject ones , lol . ALOHA .

Strong currents and concrete in the bottom , "In doubt , don't go ".
