By Noa Myers


The usual scene at Turtle Bay Resort consists of tourists in Speedos sipping on cocktails with umbrellas. NSSA Hawai‘i decided to change things up a bit for a weekend and bring in some groms in boardshorts gulping down energy drinks (as if they need it) for what came to be their first event of the season on January 31 and February 1. This comes as a surprise, as the Pine Trees contest on Kaua‘i was canceled due to unruly surf. Nonetheless, it was a great way to kick off the season at Kuilima Point, which hasn't hosted a contest in over six years.

Testing the Waters

There truly is something to be said for doing your homework. If you were going to buy a new car, you’d test drive it first.

But for far too long, we’ve all been dropping the ball and our hard-earned cash by purchasing five, six, and seven-hundred-dollar boards that flat out don’t work for us. Well, the days of selling your dining room furniture for that new Firewire only to have it end up on Craigslist or collecting dust in the garage are over, as 33-year-old Cariel Cohen of LA County may have the solution to the problem: Ride the board first.
