Soichi Sawachi is the owner of surf shop "Full Speed" and the Sendai Surf Shop Union chair person.

"I was at the surf shop, which is a five-minute drive from the beach, when the earthquake struck. Although I was witness to the earthquake and the tsunami said to be the worst in a thousand years, I think that I will continue to be connected to the sea in the future. Without becoming pessimistic, I want to create a better environment for surfing and live a forward-looking life. I hope that future generations will be able to deal with the sea better. "
