To Japan’s bodyboarder’s and people.
Myself, like many others in the international bodyboarding community (or family) have had the opportunity to travel and spend some time in this fantastic country.

Messages from Turbo + Milkshakes for Japan
Hey guys!
We cant explain why these things happen but they almost always happen for a reason. I really admire your attitude when you say "we cant just sit here and cry". That takes alot and I respect that, keep that attitude and your business will be back up in no time. Pass that attitude on to your countrymen and your country will be back up in no time!
I have been staying with Chiaki Okuyama the last 2 weeks, and her strength and attitude towards this whole incident has been inspiring to say the least! The Japanese are a strong race, work together to rebuild what you have!
Jared Houston


Hey all my friends Bodyboaders,
I'm praying for you and everyone affected by the tsunami and earthquake especially everyone in Japan. Anything I could do to help? Let me know. Praying that everything goes okay. aloha

" Hi Bodyboarders from Japan! I just wanted to send my sincere regards to all of you who have been effected by the Earth Quake. The whole world is watching the inspirational spirit that the Japanese people are demonstrating in this testing time. Obviously the road ahead will be tough, but it's nothing that you as individuals and a united nation can't handle. You have the support of the Bodyboarding community and the World as a whole, so use that as fuel to build your country back to what it was, and beyond, as a new and stronger Japan has just been born"
Yours in Bodyboarding Damian King


My heart goes out to all our bodyboarding friends in Japan. Their families, their friends, and everyone affected by the quake and tsunami in Japan.
I love the people of Japan! Every one of you that I have met is so lovely and kind and full of fun and have such a zest for life. I really hope you keep your spirits up and keep positive for the future. I am praying that the nuclear reactor is stabilised quickly and safely, and that there are no more serious earthquakes in Japan in the near future.
Lots of love from your friends in Australia :)
