so i took care of some computer stuff and a negotiation with alex from local motion about prices of my photos. after all that i went to a tour of shops where my friends are working.
1st stop, Tropical Blends.
it's located on queen street ewa of ward ave. this place is a real surf shop! tons of boards and equipments and not many other junk like shirts and stuff. the owner jim is the man! super cool guy and he sponsor bunch of kids and is always willing to help whenever i need help. you gotta check out this place for sure!derek's been working here for a while now. when i got there derek was cleaning like a mad man! dusting and wiping everything. noticed the simple green cleaner? i told you, a real surf shop! care about the environment too.
talked to them for a while and i was off to my 2nd stop, Eco Systems in ward warehouse where Dana works.
i guess dana didn't want to be photographed... ha ha
if you want some cool shirts, this is the place to go. they carry tons of different suf company's stuff and they got some cool stuff of their own. here's one of their designs, a peeing boy. i love it!
i made dana stand next to a good looking mystery man with a cool shirt. you better watch out geoff! ha ha
3rd stop, T&C in ward warehouse few doors down from Eco Systems where Geoff's a manager. i guess i don't have to tell you about t&c, everyone knows t&c. if you need anything surf related, this is the place to go!
here's geoff looking important! ha hahe had a crazy day. he worked at UH (university of hawaii) in the morning, and t&c right after that. i think total of 14 hours of working today! he's nuts...
after my tour of the shops i met up with derek, who just got off from work, to get some Acai cups from jamba juice. i had a coupon for buy 1 get 1 free. what a deal!
derek and i went surfing at kewalos for the rest of the day. another nice day!quiksilver shop challenge at bowls tomorrow! this one, i know they are going to have it so early morning tomorrow!
