Remembering Solomon~

R.I.P. Puhi

thread from yesteryear
the time Solomon gave away his boards 2004
click this for insight into sadness
post in honor of the Silver Tiger

...."hi cube~ you where lucky.... You got to meet 'the silver tiger'
I miss his posts
I once told him I don't think I will ever visit Hawaii again~
I would rather remember what it was like
than find out what it is like now
if I ever do go back the first thing I will do is go to his resting place and share a mini-woodstock with him
(take a picture and post it here)
I miss the guy

I dropped in on a wave the other day, tired from 6 hours in the water, and did one of those "standing tall" bottom turns, due to the exhaustion, and as the fingertips of my left hand skimmed the surface I immediately thought of the above shot of the silver tiger - I of course didn't have the style, grace or power but I did smile with the thought of him - a nice moment from out of nowhere.
Then, again, on the way off the island, we popped in some Bob Marley and the song came on he used to quote the line from "everything's gonna be alright" and again a quiet moment of reflection on the beauty of the day, and the wonderful friends I've met that are gone but still with us..... courtesy of Puhi

Love life, love your friends, "everything's gonna be alright" Never forget....

RIP Silver Tiger
Does anybody have the other water pic of Puhi bottom turning, hand on face, with the sick lip throwing in front of him?
I have it as my desktop background, but can't find the location of the pic to upload it here.
Amazing pic

Wow.... has it been that long....
Thanks for bringing it back up.
Was at the beach this weekend. Did give thanks to the man for the positive that he shared, the friendship and a caution to keep those dark areas in check.

Thanks Silver Tiger. Hopefully you're surfing empty lineups every day.

Yeah...been on my mind quite a bit lately as well...such a strange connection to him...sometimes I rarely think of him for a while, others it's like I can't get him out of my head! Hehehe...hoping he's enjoying much more peace and happiness in the afterlife.
