Surfing when there are waves, traveling the globe in search of good surf, and earning money by taking pictures of the experience? This has to be the perfect lifestyle!” – Mitsuyuki Shibata, Photographer

Different idea, life or experience; one thing in common THE SURF:

Yoshihiko Kushimo started surfing when he was 13  ” my life has revolved around surfing ever since… and I am turning 53 this year!  For me surfboards are work of art, and my are manifestation of my soul.

Taro Tamai   keeps pursuit perfect moments of fulfillment, keep searching the ultimate moment .

Keiichiro Mukai spent his youth on the islands of Amakusa before moving to Tokyo when he was 15. After join a company producing commercials he assumed his current role of art director at age of 25. With far-reaching vision, he has engaged in all kinds of work such as graphic design, production of films and art installation spaces. Then, 15 years ago his yearning for nature and the sea resurfaced, so he moved to the border of Zushi and Kamakura were he reduscovered the joy of surfing. Since then, he has enjoyed creating art expressing the light and the shwdow of empty spaces….
