I just got back from one of my best surf trips with my good friends. I always dreamt of going on a surf trip with no contest involved with Jeff Hubb and Dave Hubb. I've traveled with them a lot, but it was always to a competition somewhere in some zone. I always looked up to Jeff since I was a kid and Dubb is just a freak when he's in the water. And the boogie spot we went to was a dream spot I always wanted to surf and it was on my bucket list as well. We had the best crew and such good vibes between all of us. Jeff and Dave Hubb, Ray Collins(Photographer), Matthew Tanaka(videographer), and myself. I traveled solo for the first 4 days. I had an overnight layover in South Korea then flew to Bali and spend a couple days there by myself. Bali was cool, but it is getting so populated and so much new buildings are being built and I was over it and couldn't wait to meet up with the boys in Java. We all met up in Java and made the 3 and a half hour drive to the zone. Once we got there we were set. Jubb organized our accommodation and everything and it was such an epic place. Our place where we were staying was right in front of the two surf breaks, we had fresh coconuts daily, we had our lunch and dinner made, the island vibes where awesome, and it was really relaxing not having wifi and being far away from everything. We had a lot of time to enjoy each others company and also to have time to our selves. Everyday we would wake up, coffee and oatmeal, surf, coconut hydration, eat lunch, surf, coconut hydration, dinner, play glass card, and sleep. We did this for a week straight and it was nothing, but good times. Glass card is a game that we all made up. It's like uno, but we made our own rules and tricks to the game.
Thank you to my good friends and these legends Jeff and Dave Hubbard, Ray Collins, and Matthew Tanaka for the good times and epic memories that I will never forget. We scored some epic waves and Ray Collins shot some epic images that will be featured in the next
Riptide Magazine. Also, Matthew Tanaka was on the job and got some cool footage that I'll be saving for a "Summer" podcast that I'll release with all of my summer trips just before the winter season starts. Jeff and Dave Hubb will feature there video footage zones in a project they have coming up. All in all, this trip was a Dream Trip for me. Mahalo for the support everyone and to my sponsors No.6 Bodyboards, The Foam Company, NVCTA Clothing, Da Secret Sauce, Reeflex Wetsuits, SURGE Wax, and Dakine for the love!!!!!! Life is good :) Aloha
