This is Shonan Legend Gara-san, he's 73 years old and rips. I saw him do a back side full wrap cutback today.

He was one of the first surfers in Shonan. I'm glad to know him.

I don't think that board is 2-3 foot above her height!

Here is an impressive 9yr old. Guess it helps when your dad is a pro surfer
