This is a report from the first day of Surf Trip Journal's surfing coverage of Amami Oshima.

We are staying at Green Hill.
FU WAX is available in our store, chosen by local surfer Midori.

Yagijima, a break on the East China Sea side

Nishii rode the LOST 5'7" DIABLO-SPARTAN!

Masato's signature model is the LOST 5'5" CHOPPER.

Masato Yukawa and Akira JET Nakaura are two members of the FU WAX team.

While checking the waves, they were onshore today.
Nishii is talking about Makino Daichi, the island's youngest professional golfer at 19 years old.

Photographer Char is very interested in Nishii's secret weapon, the OSMO camera.
Char moved to Amami Oshima a few years ago.

Masato's combination makes for an incredible lunch.

After surfing, we went around to check out some spots.

The wind was blowing from the Tehiro area and the villas on the Pacific side,

Because the size is small, today we will be looking at the onshore East China Sea side.
I went surfing at Hatohama.

The wind was strong so we surfed when the tide was going out.

Since it's not yet published, I can't reveal too many photos,

With waves like this,
It was a peculiar wave that peaked onshore.
I hope the waves will be better tomorrow.
