Yea Buds!
You Da Man! Im gonna miss you guys when you leave. Make sure you take care of your wife, boobs and your new keiki kane. Hope you get to hunt, and shoot a big one with the Firestorm and make me proud. Send me the pics.
I know now, for the past ten solid years you’ve been blowin it up in the bodyboarding industry. You did worlds in africa, you hooked up with Jimmy as your mentor and sponsor, then Kainoa started to mentor you, teaching you the ways of the dragon. Soon after you got to surf maui with Chado and J. hubb, that was the beggining of your dream comming true. Soon later you had a career boost video segment thanks to Timmy and Dub with the BoogieNation crew.
I remember you always used to say to me. “I wish i could turn pro and be in bodyboarder magazine with a two page spread. Those were ancient times. Well look at you now!
Im very proud of you of what you accomplished and thankful that you were my mentor. Otherwise i’d be blowing it like a tourist.
Even though you have alot of friends now cause your Bud. At least i can truly say no other bodyboarder knows you like i do. Aloha, your best friend Buza…..
P.S. No forget come back home once and a while…..
