NSSA HAWAII #3 AT LAHAINA HARBOR!
By: Miko Parker


THE MEGA TALENTED HAWAII OPEN BOYS!

It was a beautiful weekend on Maui at Lahaina Harbor. The contest kicked off on Saturday, August 8 with the Open Season divisions. The competitors were having fun with 2 foot surf. Sunday, August 9 we continued with the Explorer divisions and the surf stayed fun and contestable. Local boy Imaikalani DeVault took the win in the Open Boys division while the other local boy Tanner Hendrickson was ripping throughout the day. The 17-year-old from Paia was absolutely on fire winning every heat in the Open Men’s division including the final. Tanner was putting 9’s and 10’s on the scoreboard while throwing away 8 point rides. We have a new women’s ripper on the Hawaii scene. 11-year-old Dax McGill put on an impressive show in both the Open Women’s and Explorer Girls divisions claiming both finals. Dax’s opponents Tatiana Weston-Webb and Bailey Nagy were shredding and giving her a run by getting some high scores but Dax was unstoppable! Bailey took second in the Open Women’s but came back to take a big victory in the Explorer Women’s. Ry Cowan showed off his improved surfing strengths winning his contest of the season in the Explorer Men’s. Maui boy Kain Daly was also tearing it up claiming his first win of the year in Explorer Boys. We were sad to say good bye to Andrew Neimann who will be leaving Hawaii and moving to Huntington Beach. We look forward to watching Andrew go to battle with the top kids on the west coast!


LOTS OF NEW YOUNG BLOOD IN THE WOMEN'S DIVISIONS!

NSSA Hawaii would like to give many mahalos to the Daly family for all of their contributions to our program. We would also like to thank Papa John and Aunty Donna and the Maui groms for feeding us all the good kind grinds!
