Kite Surfing

 

The island of Oahu is characterized by white sandy beaches, turquoise water, light trades, and the breathtaking Ko'olau and Waianae mountains rising over three thousand feet above the Pacific. Oahu is home to Honolulu, Pearl Harbor, Waikiki, Diamond Head, and the great waves of the North Shore.
Commonly translated as "the gathering place," Oahu is home to 80 percent of the population of the Hawaiian Islands.
Kiters coming to Oahu can find conditions ranging from the lighter trades of the summer to the stronger, but more sporadic trades of the fall, winter, and spring.
The most common kite sizes for local riders range from 9 to 16 meters for men and 5 to 14 meters for women.
Currently, there are many different areas where riders are allowed to launch. Each of these sites has it's own unique set of concerns that riders must be aware of. Checking in with any of the local shops or the HKA is a great way to obtain local knowledge before getting out on the water.
With safety and consideration for other beach users we can continue to enjoy the wide variety of beaches and conditions that Oahu has to offer.

Surfing

 

north shore surfingEach winter, O‘ahu’s rugged North Shore serves up some of the largest and imposing ocean waves on the planet. Giant, storm-generated swells make their long trek across the northern Pacific to batter reef breaks and the area’s shoreline.

For many Island residents, this means only one thing: Surf’s up!

The exact origin of surfing is unknown, but most historians believe that the Polynesians were already well versed in the sport by the time they migrated to the Hawaiian Islands some 2,000 years ago. Early Hawaiians called surfing "he‘e nalu," which literally translates to "wave sliding." During this time, only high-ranking ali‘i had access to the best surf spots. King Kamehameha himself was said to be an avid and skilled surfer.

Surfing really took off in the early 1900s. Riding boards made mostly from hewn redwood and balsa wood, early surfers risked their lives to take on these giant waves.

Today, thanks to a number of modern innovations and inventions, the surfing population on the North Shore has exploded. Wave riders and spectators from around the world gather here from November to February, hoping catch that perfect wave. Winter wave heights can get as high 20 feet, with faces up to 50 feet! This extreme surf is for experts only, and even then conditions are considered highly dangerous.

World-renowned surf contests are held here from early November to late December. The Van's Triple Crown of Surfing, which includes the Van's Hawaiian Pro at Ali'i Beach Park in Hale'iwa; the Rip Curl Cup at Sunset Beach; and the XBox Gerry Lopez Pipeline Masters, brings together the world’s best professional surfers. The Quiksilver Eddie Aikau Big Wave Invitational, held at Waimea Bay, also takes place each winter.

Although winter on the North Shore may not be the best time and place to learn how to surf, the summer months provide safer, saner conditions.

Ask any surfer, and he (or she) will tell you that surfing is an exhilarating thrill, a natural high. "I love the sensation of riding a wave and the feeling I have when I’m out on the ocean," says Hans Hedemann, a former pro surfer-turned-surfing instructor. "It’s also a challenge because every wave is different, and it’s up to me to make the most of each wave."
