At least that’s what we’re hoping for
Saturday
The little park in front of the Natatorium
probably mid-day or even earlier if needed
as free parking and tent space will be limited
big concert at the shell at 7:00
The jellies got run out of town
maybe the surf too
although there’s rumors…
Any takers?
cause its a long drive from Makaha and Haubush just to show up alone to kick the rich folks off their beach.
Sorry for the misplaced post but people from hawaii can be lazy…
I got an email from my friend over there and he said its been a good summer this year…fun waves almost every day for 2 months.
The title of this thread is quite provoking…
local crew cool widat?
That place gets packed. I recommend an early gathering. I found ample parking there provided you get there before 7 AM. I am game for any early one. It’s a good place to launch SUPs also. We are talking about this Saturday, August 2?
Let me know and I can start planning and get a BBQ menu together.
Thanks,
D
Wish I could make it but no can do Saturdays … here’s a frame grab Keith surfing a few days ago
I’m ok with meeting at Magic Island instead if the parking is better. You guys pick the spot and I will show up with boards beer and some food…hard for me to get the kids there by 7am though, takes us an hour to drive to town.
We can switch to Sunday if that is better for more folks. I see that Bud can’t make Saturday…
What say ya???
Okay so how about Sunday?
and put up a tent or two on Magic Island
Lots of spots you can surf and shoot video from over there.
Let’s finalize this thing.
Works for us. Sunday at Magic island. See ya there!! Chime in here if you can make it, or just show up…

I might hit the super ferry this weekend, maybe ill catch up with you guys
Its been pretty flat up until the last few days… doesnt look like much this weekend?
edit
well shit never mind checking the magicseaweed surf forecaast looks like you guys got waves full time… sucks we always get shielded by the other islands and has to be just right to get anything
Sunday, What time?
Not sure if it’s this weekend, but there’s supposed to be some kind of fair going on at Magic Island. Space could be hard to find there too.
Wish I could make it, I got to work OT out in Nanakuli.
as why hard as dey say hea
Okay Magic Island is out so its back to the Natatorium
Its nicer there anyway
Dennis
How about around SUNDAY MORNING 7AM at the park in front of the Natatoium.
If we can get front row parking we can set up a tent and stuff
while we wait for the rest to show up
doesn’t sound like there will be any surf
so we’ll have to settle for atmosphere
and its much prettier there than at magic island
Is this okay with everyone?
Cause if it isn’t I got other stuff I need to do,
I hate trying to coordinate stuff like this when all I have to do is just go 5 minutes to the beach and home from my house to get a surf in.
Driving out of Ewa Beach on Fort Weaver into town is the last thing I want to do on my day off…
Let me know
If you guys will be there so will Keith and I
We need a banner or flag…
I will show up and with family in tow there will be a bunch of us. If anyone else wants to show up, cool. Otherwise I will drink all the beer myself!
See ya Sunday. I won’t be able to get there by 7 but will be as early as possible and will hang out till mid-afternoon…
Where exactly is the “natatorium”? not familiar with oahu much… only been there 4-5 times and never for more than a week
The Natatorium is across Kapiolani Park if you stay on Kalakaua following the beach past all the hotels and the volleyball nets you’ll approach the park on your left. Keep going till you see another minipark on your right next to a large delapidated concrete facility. It was a memorial built to honor the WW1 veterans and was built as a saltwater pool right next to the ocean. You can turn into the loop or park anywhere near on Kalakaua you can find free parking which is rare
Alot of OC1, SUP paddlers and picnic’rs setup tents and barbeque in the little park. People drive in early from far away on the weekends to party, picnic and stay all day.
The famous surf spot Publics is right outside the natatorium. Watch Out Deep Holes and Queens are a 15-20 minute walk back to Waikiki down the street. Lots of beautiful people and health freaks with triathlete bodies everywhere definitely not a Haubush or Makaha crowd.
the elks clubs, the outrigger canoe club and the “W” hotel are right up the street.
Never heard of any of them… heh… is it worth it to bring a shortboard?
Thanks for the directions though, should be there no problem
One of my cousins from this island is going over there for a paddle race this weekend too… even more action, sounds like the coast will be packed
I’m surprised nobody mentioned “Fly’z” near Kakaako Park or Sand Island beach park. Good surf! Good place to hang out and have a BBQ. Parking usually not a problem and the crowds were minimal. Just a suggestion. To bad I’m stuck here in Osaka. LOL! Aloha, DC
I’ll be there.

Are you bringing a BBQ grill Unc D???
Just a small little smokey Weber.
On oahu now with the cous… after getting totally screwed by the ferry, caught a flight over today. We were wondering if theres anything more we could bring
