Rell Sunn

The first wave rolled in and everyone made way for Rell but she fooled us. “This one is for you, Ronnie,” she yelled. I spun around and frantically dropped into a long, beautiful right. When I kicked out, I turned and witnessed true “poetry in motion.” The Queen of Makaha was already deep into her bottom turn wearing the biggest smile. We all watched with delight and enjoyed her amazing style and grace. It was magical. She ended her ride in front of me and I still remember her words, “This is what keeps me alive!”
