Canary Islands Update

      The past 9 days or so since I last updated my blogg have been epic.  There were pumping waves for the first week i've been here.  I surfed twice a day everyday somehow.  Jeff Hubb and Mark Mcarthy arrived last week and unfortunately the waves went bad.  Well not bad, there were still waves, but it was windy and stormy.  We still got to surf mostly everyday.  We moved into our new zone which is sick.  Its a full on apartment with two stories somehow.  Mark Mcarthy has been cooking epic dinners for the boys and we've been enjoying.  We are staying right by the ocean so when it's been flat Mark, Cobus and I have been snorkeling and checking out some pristine caves here.  It's beautiful here in the Canaries.  Epic sunsets, waves, beaches, sun, nice temperature, good friends, and good times.  I'm loving it besides the crowds which are insane.  Today there were about 57 people in the water and 30+ on land waiting to go out.  It's crazy, but it's all good.  The local riders here totally kill it.  It's epic to watch.  I'm still having a good time.  Below are some photos of taken in and out of the water.  Thank you to Riraw, Alejandro, and Cayetano for the photos and frame grabs.  Tomorrow is the first day of the waiting period.  Trials will be going out and i'm feeling good and ready to compete.  Aloha and mahalo for the support everyone!
