As usual, my parents went to Tacloban (again) to work on some papers, so I got the chance to hang out at Tanauan. When I arrived at the beach, there were skimmers already, Tals and Stephen (Longkoy’s brother), then we just start talking and skimming. An hour later, we moved to another spot, and Stephen insisted that I should try his board, man.. it was my first time to use a Victoria skimboard.. haha.. felt good.. hmm.. I was thinking of getting my own board too… I wonder how much it’ll cost.

The waves were not really big, just normal waves where I can get a good ride, I mean for my level, haha. Man, I have to get use to skimboarding again especially that I haven’t played for two years because I was stuck in Bangkok with no beach around, which sucks.

Another hour passed, Ciao (Porak’s brother) arrived, and start doing some nice cut backs and aerials, so I grabbed my camera start shooting. Then Longkoy arrived with some friends, and oh, Sheryl also was there, and we moved to another spot, which was pretty cool, because I was skimming with the hardcore local skimmers, and most of them were champions. And so then, it was noontime, we decided to have lunch together, we went to Longkoy’s place, started to cook rice, and we had kinilaw (Filipino version for sushi, haha). It was a great lunch; I really had fun hanging out with these guys.

Anyway, they told me they are going to Batangas and Zambales for a skimboarding competition, so it’s gonna be Longkoy, Porak, Caio, and Sheryl who are coming there to compete. And the competition in Tanauan will be on April 29 – 30 along with the Palarong Pambansa at Tacloban City, well that’s what they told me.
