WHAT A DAY


Last Saturday me and my brother headed out to Makaha at 6 in the morning because he was going to surf in the Quiksilver Makahiki Longboard contest. The waves were really small so they didn't start the contest. So, we headed around the mountain to the North Shore. The waves weren't as good as expected when we got to Ehukai, so we went all the way to Mokuleia to surf this "SECRET" spot. I met up with Kylen, Cole, Mahina, Sayuri, and Kaz. We had a little surf contest that Kaz called "THE BET CHALLENGE." It was fun and i ended up winning(BEST WAVE) a complete meal for lunch and Kylen ended up winning(BEST EAT IT) a drink from Kaz Sano! GO DRIFT SURFERS! Thanks Kazzzzz.

Marcus on his way to Round of 64


Today was the first day of the WQS 5 star Volcom Pipeline Pro. Congrats to Marcus Hickman, Drift team rider, on his advancement to the Round of 64, where he will meet fellow Hawaii surfers Jamie O'Brien, Flynn Novak, and Gavin Gillete. This should be an exciting heat so please check it out on the web or at the beach when contest resumes. Good Luck to Marcus and Hawaii surfers.

Kylen Yamakawa


Team DRIFT SURF Kylen Yamakawa won the Volcom Contest at Maili pt this past weekend. Congratulations Kylen! Keep up the good surfing!

Clark Foam


We just got a new board from Wade Tokoro. The foam he used was a old Clark Foam! Wade had a couple left in his storage and he decided to shape one of the last Clark Foams left.

This board is his newest model called B-3 and it features a lower rocker with deeper concaves. This board was made to go faster in the smaller surf and surfable in medium waves as well. Come check it out at Drift Surf Hawaii.

FINALLY the devil SW winds are gone!!!

Today the waves in town were FINALLY good. The muggy vog and onshore winds switched to perfect light offshore tradewinds which created near perfect conditions for town. The surf was super glassy and waves were in the 3 foot range. Diamond Head was going off because it catches the West swell wrap and I got many calls from my friends saying it was EPIC! I ended up surfing Kewalos, which doesn't catch the west wrap too good but still had a lot of fun out there with the morning crew. There should be plenty of fun rippable waves in town for the rest of the week. Hope to see you all out in the surf. ALOHA.
