SUP & Surfing birthday waves for Dave Devlin

My good Aussie mates Dave Devlin and Bob Striper were down visiting Okinawa for 5 days from mainland Japan to chase waves and boy did they do some chasing. Sometimes driving 200km in a day riding various spots. These boys have some energy. For Dave's 49th birthday I went along with him and suggested a couple of spots to try out. Although it was low tide he was charging some good size waves despite the fact there was just a few inches between the bottom of the wave and the sharp reef below.

Dave at the first spot. Birthday chargin!

 Dan the man Melhado rips it up as always

But gets a little camera shy sometimes

James straight from the warm Aussie waters to the colder conditions in Okinawa

still knows how to shred it.

Happy birthday mate!
