IAN GENTIL'S TECHNICAL AND EXPLOSIVE ATTACK!

Beautiful Lahaina Harbor on Maui set the stage for NSSA Hawaii’s makeup event #4 held on September 10-11. The contest presented by Mad Love was blessed with perfect 2-3 foot waves and amazing conditions throughout the weekend for the NSSA Hawaii competitors who were super hyped with the great surf. Maui boy Kain Daly was on his game ripping his way to double wins in the Open and Explorer Juniors. Reigning National Explorer Girls Champion Tatiana Weston Webb was destroying it throwing down 8’s and 9’s like it was no big deal. Tatiana was pushing the level in the Womens taking double wins in the Open and Explorer Womens. Newcomer Cole Alves took a huge victory in the Mini Groms…congrats buddy! Sibling rivalries are always fun to watch and we have a good sister act this season in the Longboard division with the Kui and Makani Adric. The sisters were going head to head in both Longboard finals with Kui triumphing in the Open and younger sister Makani sealing the Explorer victory. The Open Juniors final was the most heated and exciting final of the event with local boy Ian Gentil putting down the hammer with a near perfect 9.5 to clinch his first win of the season. Ian was also surfing at a dynamic level in the Open Men’s taking second in the final to Kain.

Thank you to the Pioneer Inn for the incredible accommodations…you guys Rock! Also a sincere thank you to Papa John and Aunty Donna for all the support to NSSA Hawaii.

Thank you sponsors: Mad Love, Xcel, Rockwell Watches, Surfco Hawaii, Bubble Gum, Aloha Kine, Kalani Robb, Novus Swell
