For us keiki (children), the beach wasn't just a playground; it was our classroom, our training ground, and the heart of our community. Family memories made, lifelong relationships...

What's even cooler is that not all, but most Hawaiian snowboarders, actually start by surfing ocean waves. Think about it: that same balance, that same flow,...
