OCTOBER 8-9, 2011

SETH MONIZ RULED THE SUNSET LINEUP!

It was an awesome weekend at Sunset Beach for NSSA Hawaii event #6 as we started out the winter season with some pumping surf! We kicked the weekend off with our premier Open Divisions and competitors were pushing the envelope! The Open Mens final was a brotherly challenge between the talented Moniz’s. All three brothers made the finals and younger brother Seth was pulling out all the stops. Seth went on to take the victory while Josh took the runner up placing and Isaiah claimed the 3rd spot! Congrats to the Moniz brothers for always challenging each other! This was a first time in NSSA history to have three brothers take the top three spots in the prestigious Open Men’s division! Not only did youngest brother Seth step up to the plate with an impressive win in Open Men’s, he also sealed the victory in the Open Juniors.

BAILEY NAGY WAS ON FIRE IN OPEN WOMENS

In the Open Women’s, Bailey Nagy took the win while reigning National Open Girls Champion Dax McGill ripped to victory in the Explorer Womens. Another red-hot Hawaii grom is on the rise by the name of Wyatt McHale. Wyatt was tearing it up all weekend scoring an outstanding triple victory in the Open Mini Groms, Explorer Menehuenes and Explorer Super Groms. NSSA Hawaii would like to congratulate Zoe McDougall on her first big win in the Explorer Longboard! It was terrific to have a lot of newcomers to NSSA Hawaii at the Sunset event. Shawn Briley introduced his son Isaiah to the NSSA at this contest! Isaiah ended up making the final at his first NSSA contest and he was so amped. We were also so excited to see Torrey Meister’s little brother and sister at this event. Watch out at the Nationals because NSSA Hawaii has heaps of new hot groms coming in this 2011-12 season!

HOT GROM ON THE RISE WYATT MCHALE!

On a sad note, all of us at NSSA Hawaii bid a fond aloha to a dear NSSA dad. Mike Doherty you will truly be missed not only by NSSA Hawaii but by all of the NSSA. We love you Lani and Kulia!

Thank you to everyone who came out and supported our event at Sunset Beach. And a big thank you to NSSA Hawaii sponsors: Mad Love, Xcel, Rockwell Watches, Surfco Hawaii, Bubble Gum, Aloha Kine, Kalani Robb, Novus Swell

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.

CONDITIONS: Super fun 2-3 foot waves

A NEW CLASS OF HUNGRY HAWAIIAN MINI GROMS FOR THE 2011-12 SEASON!
It was another beautiful day on the island of Kauai for the NSSA HAWAII event #3 of the 2011-12 season. The contest was held on the south side of the island at a place called PK’s. Weather and surf conditions couldn’t have been better with as the waves were firing with perfect 2-3 foot surf on offer for our competitors. Kids of all ages showed off their talent this weekend in the fun, rippable conditions. At this contest which was the first Kauai contest on the schedule, we witnessed an amazing new set of younger competitors. It was great to see all these young aspiring surfers come out and jump aboard the NSSA train. Newcomer Kainehe Hunt showed off his skills and knowledge of the break taking his first NSSA victory in the Mini Grom division.

NSSA HAWAII would like to welcome back Luke Hitchcock this year after a one year absence. Luke was excited to be back in action and proved it by taking an impressive victory in the Open Men’s final. and took his first win of the season in the Open Mens division. Kids all ages showed off their talent this weekend. The standout in the Women’s category was Brianna Cope who swept both wins in the Open and Explorer divisions. In the younger female categories, Mahina Maeda came out firing on all cylinders at PK’s taking both wins in the Open and Explorer Girls 14 & under divisions. Mahina continues to prove herself as one of the top young female talents in the country considering her impressive triple finals appearances at the 2011 Nationals including an outstanding 3rd place finish in the prestigious Open Womens division. In the Longboard division, Natalia Smith killed it with her clean maneuvers and smooth style scoring the double win in both the Open and Explorer finals. It was surely an inspiring weekend of performance surfing for all the NSSA Hawaii girls because they were red-hot in the double victories column! So congrats ladies! NSSA HAWAII would like to thank Aunty Jodi, Aunty Amy and Aunty Lauren and Uncle Danny for all their help and support!

NSSA HAWAII REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS

KEWALO BASIN, OAHU, HAWAII

MARCH 17-19, 2011

CONDITIONS: Sun, wind, rain and great surf at Kewalos.

By: Miko Parker

OPEN MENS AND EXPLORER JUNIORS CHAMPION ISAIAH MONIZ!

(March 21, 2011) The Hawaii Regional Championships was held on March 17-19 at Kewalo Basin. It was a beautiful 3-day weekend with all the weather elements including sun, wind and some rain. But most important we scored great surf! The 2011 Hawaii Regional Championships serves as the Regional qualifier for Hawaii surfers to earn a bid to the 2011 NSSA National Championships presented by Nike 6.0, June 26-July 3 in Huntington Beach, California.

3-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPION EZEKIEL LAU TAKES THE EXPLORER MENS AND AIRSHOW!

On opening day, the surf was a fun 2-3 feet and the weather was beautiful. Competition kicked of with the first rounds of the Open divisions. Ezekiel Lau blew up in his home break at Kewalos posting huge 9.0 scores on the board. Maui surfers Chaz Kinoshita and and Imaikalani DeVault battled each other in the Open Juniors. Each of them were throwing up 8 and 9-point rides as easily advancing on to their next rounds. The Open Mini Groms put on an incredible show of progressive moves ripping his way to the finals with excellent 8.5 scores.

OPEN LONGBOARD CHAMPION HONOLUA BLOMFIELD SMOOTH AND STYLISH!

On day two of the Regional Championships, the contest was greeted with a eventful dose of mother nature including wind and rain in the morning. Once lunchtime came the sun was back shining on the championships and the kids were ripping. Matty Costa was the first to raise the bar posting the event's first perfect 10 point ride. After Matty started the trend of getting 10’s, Isaiah Moniz and Bailey Nagy were quick to join the club. Isaiah pulled off a huge air reverse, which posted excellent scores from the judges. Bailey performed some critical manuevers to receive her perfect 10. Young, bright star Tatiana Weston Webb posted a perfect 10 across the board in her Explorer Girls repercharge. Other standout surfers in the championships who were lighting up the scoreboard were Kaito Kino, Kaulana Apo, and Leila Hurst. In Longboarding, Honolua Blomfield triumphed in the Open and Makani Adric took win in the Explorer.

FINN MCGILL SHREDS TO DOUBLE WINS IN MINI GROM AND SUPER GROM!

All finals were held on day three, March 19th. The weather and waves cooperated with light winds, lots of sunshine and 3 foot surf. Leila Hurst pushed the level in the Explorer Women's final posting a near perfect 9.8. More than a few surfers stepped it up pulling off double victories. Isaiah Moniz enjoyed a monster performance in both the Open Mens and Explorer Juniors finals taking two enormous wins in both divisions. 3-time National Champion Ezekiel Lau was put on a show of progressive moves taking the victories in Explorer Mens and the Airshow. Leila Hurst proved why she is the leading contender for double National titles nailing the victories in both the Open and Explorer Womens. Seth Moniz was on fire taking double wins in the Open Juniors and Explorer Boys. Finn McGill put on an impressive surfing display claiming both the Open Mini Groms and Explorer Super Grom Regional titles. Dax McGill dominated in both the Open and Explorer Girls sealing both wins. Kaulana Apo made a big statement in the 12 & under categories exploding to both victories in the Open Boys and Explorer Menehuene. Look for all of these surfers to bring their "A" games to Huntington Beach this summer for the 2011 National Championships.

FREDDY P GOLDEN TICKET: For seven consecutive years, 1999 National Open Men's Champion and ASP World Title surfer Fred Patacchia donates a ticket to the Nationals for a deserving NSSA Hawaii surfer. Kahanu Delovio was announced as the recipient of this year's Freddy P Golden Ticket for her hard work and improvement this season.

RVCA JASON NALU BOGLE AWARD: Jason's close friend Daniel Jones presented this very special award honoring the memory of Jason Bogle to Shelby Schweitzer, Honolua Blomfield, Kylie Nagy, Gen Asano and Ty Ty Kirby. Daniel also presented a Jason Nalu Bogle custom surfboard to NSSA newcomer Brodi Sale.

JANUARY 15-16, 2011
CONDITIONS: Bombing 5-6 foot waves increasing throughout the weekend!

By: Miko Parker

MATTY COSTA CHARGING TO 3 FINALS!

What a weekend! NSSA Hawaii’s event #7 went off at Banyans on the Big Island with amazing surf conditions. Not only did we have pumping surf in the 5-6 foot range, but we also had so many standouts! This was a special contest for all the Big Island kids! We would like to remember Uncle Clement Junior Kanuha (CJ’s dad). You will be missed.

KYLEN YAMAKAWA STRAIGHT UP!

First off we want to thank the Kona Banyans crew. You guys rocked. Saturday was a beautiful day. Not only did we have snowmen on the side of the road, but we were blessed with beautiful honus and a whale which took the kid’s breath away. The waves were pumping, the stakes were highand the kids showed off their skills. Leila Hurst took the win in the Open Womens while Kain Daly took the win in the Open Mens. Kaulana Apo was on fire taking double wins in the Open Boys and Explorer Menehuenes. On Sunday, the waves picked up big time which gave the “big wave” surfers a chance to showcase their skills and strength. The Yamakawa brothers, Cole and Kylen, ripped their way into finals but didn’t have enough power to take down Matty Costa and Troy Weston Webb. Matty Costa was in his element taking command in the big conditions. Surfing at a high level, Matty charged to three finals taking the win in the Explorer Juniors and runner up in both the Open and Explorer Mens. Troy Weston Webb pushed the level in the Explorer Mens final claiming his first win of the season. Another big wave standout was CJ Owens who impressed the judges with his dynamic surfing. Imaikalani DeVault and Chaz Kinoshita challenged each other in the Open Juniors and Explorer Boys divisions battling for the win in both finals. Imai took the Open Juniors and Chaz won the Explorer Boys. Kui Adric took command in longboarding winning both the Open and Explorer divisions. With the swell building intensely generating strong currents and huge waves pounding the lineup, the Explorer Women’s and Girls were postponed until the next event.

CJ OWENS WAS OWNING IT!

NSSA Hawaii would like to thank the Big Island parents who provided lunch for all the kids and staff. Uncle Kalani, Jay Ng, Rodger Naihe, Keola Akao, Makana Delovio and family and the Kanuha family. We would also like to extend our appreciation to the Kona Bali Kai for a fantastic place to stay during the event.

NSSA Hawaii Sponsors: Atwater, Xcel, Aloha Kine, Bubble Gum, Kalani Robb, Jason Nalu Bogle, Surfco Hawaii, ASP Hawaii, Triple Crown, Equalibryum, Koa Tree, Papa John, Wahoo’s Fish Tacos and the Honu Group.

CONDITIONS: RIPPABLE 2-3 FOOT SURF AT BANYANS ON THE PICTURESQUE BIG ISLAND

By: Miko Parker

“LONG LIVED THE CHAMP A.I. REST IN PARADISE…” Keala Naihe

KEALA NAIHE DEDICATED HIS WIN TO ANDY IRONS.

(Aiea, Hi – November 9, 2010) -- In an extremely emotional weekend for the NSSA Hawaii surfers, the opening morning of event #6 on the Big Island held at Banyans started out with a graceful and moving ceremony in honor of Andy Irons. A beautiful prayer was given by Manaka Delovio followed by a paddle out with all of the NSSA Hawaii surfers paying their respects to our fallen champion. Andy’s spirit blessed us with a morning shower and that was a start of an amazing contest with fun 2-3 foot surf and sunshine for the rest of the weekend. It was clear how much of Andy’s inspiration was felt by the kids as they all surfed and competed more passionate than ever.

KAUAI’S KALEN GALTES TOOK THE WIN IN OPEN JUNIORS.

NSSA Hawaii returned to the Big Island for competition after a two year absence and it was nice to be back. All of the kids surfed harder the ever for Andy. The Open divisions were run on day one Saturday and we witnessed four huge wins coming from Kauai. Congratulations to Kalen Galtes for winning the Open Juniors and Leila Hurst for taking the Open Womens. The victories were their first wins of the season. Tatiana Weston Webb claimed the victory in the Open Girls and on Sunday Mainei Kinimaka took her very first win ever in Explorer Girls. The wins were very special for Kalen, Leila, Tatiana and Mainei who all live on Kauai which was Andy’s home. All four dedicated their wins to him.

BANYAN’S LOCAL LOA NG SCORED TWO BIG WINS!

EJ Mitsui was on fire taking the win in the Open Mens which was his third of the season. The victory puts EJ in a huge lead in the Open Men’s ratings and he is sure to be one of our top contenders at the 2011 Nationals. Loa Ng claimed a double win at his home break at Banyans in the Open Boys and Explorer Menehuenes. Loa was very excited to have an NSSA Hawaii event back at his local spot. Devin Bruggemann had a great time in the Big Island nailing his very first win in the Open Mini Groms. Sunday was an exciting day for two-time National Champion Kalani David who blew up in the Explorer Boys final posting the highest score of the weekend. Makani Adric was in great rhythm in the both the Open and Explorer Longboard divisions walking away with double victories. Local boy and two-time National Champion Keala Naihe showed off his knowledge in his home turf taking the win in the Explorer Juniors division. During the contest, Keala expressed what all of the NSSA surfers, family and friends were currently feeling at the loss of their hero. “LONG LIVED THE CHAMP A.I. REST IN PARADISE…”

Finishing a beautiful and inspirational weekend all the kids dedicated the contest to “THE KING, LEGEND AND CHAMPION ANDY IRONS. You will be deeply missed and never forgotten.”

NSSA Hawaii would like to thank Makana Delovio and Ohana, Kona Bali Kai, and our great staff and judging panel. We would also like to extend our appreciation to all of our surfers, coaches and parents for their support.

KALANI DAVID RIPS TO DOUBLE WINS IN OPEN JUNIORS AND EXPLORER BOYS.

(Aiea, Hi – October 6, 2010) -- NSSA Hawaii kicked off the North Shore winter with event # 5 held at Sunset Beach on Oct. 2-3 2010. The competitors enjoyed solid surf all weekend with pumping 4-6 foot swell drilling the North Shore. The weather was a smorgasbord of conditions with sun, wind and rain but that didn’t stop all the surfers from ripping their heats. Randy Rarick from Triple Crown and Xcel’s Ed D’Ascoli were on hand at the contest to check out the big surf and watch the new generation showcase their talent. Matty Costa delivered an outstanding performance throughout the weekend ripping his way into the final and throwing up huge turns en route to his victory in the Open Mens division. The girls were charging the powerful surf while impressing the judges with their solid moves. NSSA Rookie of the Year Mahina Maeda claimed a double win in the Open and Explorer Womens. National Champion Kalani David set the pace with his radical style in the Open Juniors and Explorer Boys putting forth a dominating display in both divisions. In the Explorer Boys final, Kalani posted a perfect 10 and another excellent 8.0 for a 18.0 combined heat total. All the Explorer Boys were pushing the envelope in the final including Seth Moniz who gave Kalani a run for the win but came up just short taking second. Noa Mizuno clinched his first ever Open Boys win. The NSSA Outstanding Award went to Finn McGill for pulling a perfect 10 score in the Open Mini Grom final and finish with the victory. Three-time National Champion Ezekiel Lau continued his winning ways walking off with double victories in the Explorer Men’s and Juniors. Lau will without doubt be one of the leading contenders for the Open Men’s National title next June! Dylan Lehmann took the win in the Explorer Menehunes while Tatiana Weston Webb claimed the Explorer Girls. Nssa Hawaii would like say Mahalo to our Judges and staff. Also all the surfers, coaches & parents for all their support.

The NSSA Outstanding Award went to Finn McGill for pulling a perfect 10 score in the Open Mini Grom final and finish with the victory. The NSSA Hawaii Surfco Surfer of the event was Eli Hanneman.

(Aiea, Hi – August 17, 2010) - NSSA Hawaii Event # 3 went off on the Island of Maui at Lahaina Harbor on August 14-15 with stunning weather and rippable 2-3 foot surf on offer the entire weekend. All of the kids must have been having fun because we had lots of 9’s and perfect 10 scores being thrown. Lot’s of surfers were delivering standout performances including EJ Mitsui who has been putting his name on the map and has been unstoppable in the Open Men’s division for two straight contests. EJ stepped up huge again at Lahaina Harbor locking in his second consecutive Open Men’s victory. A huge congrats to EJ for the red-hot month he is having! Dax McGill rose to the occasion taking double wins in the Open and Explorer Women division! Dax really raised the bar in the Explorer Womens final where she posted a near perfect 9.0 in the last few minutes of the heat to seal the win. Kain Daly was at the top of his game putting on a great performance in the event clinching double wins in the Open Juniors and Explorer Mens. In the Open Boys and Explorer Menehuenes, Kaulana Apo was on fire claiming both finals. Honolua Blomfield made three finals while showing off her smooth and stylish longboard skills en route to the victory in the Open Longboard final. 10-year-old Finn McGill has been showing off his talent this season making three finals at this contest and taking the win in the Open Mini Groms. The “STAND OUT AWARD” of the event was awarded to Maui boy Imaikalani DeVault who surfed an near perfect heat in the Explorer Boys final posting a perfect 10 and a 9.5 for an excellent 19.5 total score out of a possible 20. Imai received movie passes for his spectacular surfing display in the final. We would like to thank everyone for coming out and enjoying the NSSA HAWAII event at Lahaina Harbor. A huge thanks to the Daly’s for always having the perfect contest set up and accommodations for us. Also much gratitude to Uncle John and Aunty Donna for all the yummy kind grinds! Special thanks to the Pioneer Inn for always being so cool to all of the NSSA surfers!

TANNER HENDRICKSON CONTINUES TO BLOW UP IN HAWAII.

"The Window" "Pocket" We got it!
NSSA Hawaii presented by RVCA held another great event this weekend at Pine Trees on the island of Kauai. The dads from the North Shore of Kauai knew what they were talking about !! We got the “Window” for the perfect weekend. The waves for NSSA Hawaii event #8 were 4-5 feet with perfect weather. We were told Saturday that the contest would have the "Pocket" of awesome surf before the huge swell that was right on target to hit and take over the break on Sunday. So we ran all the young kids on Saturday and saved Sunday for the big guys! The last heat of the day was the Explorer Juniors and what a heat! Matty Costa got the best barrel ever and took the victory in the Explorer Juniors final. Other standouts were Tanner Hendrickson, Nage Melamed, Imaikalani DeVault who were all double winners. NSSA Hawaii would like to thank everyone who helped this weekend including the Angulo's, Papa John and Auntie Amy!

By: Miko Parker

2-time National Champ Leila Hurst carves to victory in the Open Womens.

NSSA Hawaii event #7 at Turtle Bay kicked off with sun, wind, rain and some decent surf. On Saturday, November 7, competition got underway for the Open divisions and a portion of the Explorer divisions. The NSSA Judges sat at the point to have a perfect view of how hard the surfers were ripping. The contest saw quite a few stand-out surfers. Seth Moniz was the one and only surfer who scored perfect 10’s across the board. Reigning National Open Boy’s and Explorer Menehuene Champion Ian Gentil blew up on one of his waves and came close to scoring perfection posting a 9.8. Ian delivered a tremendous surfing display all weekend taking double victories in the Open Juniors and Explorer Juniors. Kauai’s Leila Hurst was on fire and took the win in the Open Womens division. Another impressive Kauai up-and-comer is Kiana Fores who took the win in the Explorer Girls division. Kaimana Jaquias was in dominating form capturing a huge double win in both the Open Men’s and Explorer Men’s. Kalani David took the victory in Explorer Menehuene and also made finals in the Open Boys and Explorer Boys. Congratulations to all of our standouts for their outstanding performances this past weekend.

NSSA Hawaii would like to thank Turtle Bay for welcoming the NSSA and permitting us to have an amazing contest. We look forward to our next contest there!

JUNIORS FINAL WINNER LAHIKI MINAMISHIN

NSSA Hawaii event #6 enjoyed great conditions at PK’s on the south shore of Hawaii. The Open divisions kicked off Saturday’s competition with good 3-6 foot surf and warm sunny weather. Lucas Angulo took his first win in the Open Boys division while Nage Melamed took her first win of the season in the Open Women's division. Bailey Nagy who competes in Open Womens, Explorer Womens and Explorer Girls has had a tremendous season making all three finals in her divisions. She has made finals in all of her divisions at every contest so far this season and now increases her finals streak to six…Impressive! At this event, Bailey took first in the Explorer Girls final. We also saw some big scores being thrown by Kalani David and Keanu Asing. Kalani was showing all the people on the beach what perfect 10's across the board looks like. Keanu Asing was ripping and got an excellent 9.75 in the Open Men's final which sealed the victory in the Open Men's. Lahiki Minamishin took the Open Juniors win while Ka’oli Kahokuloa’s third place finish secured his number one ranking in the division. Sunday was another beautiful, hot and long day on the beach. One of NSSA Hawaii's biggest supporters fell and broke his ankle and wrist while watching his daughter surf her heat.... He is going to be alright it will just take sometime to heal! So from NSSA HAWAII to Andy Melamed, keep your head up and heal up soon! Our Pull In Awards of the contest went to Kalen Galtes and Nage Melamed for making two finals each.

Kylen Yamakawa, Cole Yamakawa, Keala Naihe, Dylan Aoki Walsh, Makai McNamara

The NSSA Hawaii event #5 went off at Sunset Beach on October 10-11 and we scored pumping 5-7 foot surf Hawaiian scale! The waves were great, the surfing was awesome and the 25 minute finals for the Open divisions gave the kids a chance to charge a little longer and a little harder. The young girls were ripping in the massive surf. We saw 11-year-old Mahina Maeda take control of the Explorer Women’s final and take a huge victory! Mahina won the “Pull In Award” which is awarded to the outstanding female and male surfer of the contest. Another inspiring performance was delivered by 13-year-old Bailey Nagy who made all three of her finals. The Men’s competitors were charging. Kylen Yamakawa, who took a fifth in the Open Men’s final won the “Pull In Award” for the guys. Elliott Leon nailed his first win of the season in the Explorer Juniors win. Makai McNamara took his first win in the Open Juniors with a near perfection 9.5 ride. He also put on an impressive performance in the highly competitive Open Men’s division taking sixth in the final. Tanner Hendrickson and Koa Smith were also awarded excellent 9.5 scores in the Open Mens division. Tanner has been unstoppable this season taking both the Open and Explorer Men’s wins in this contest. He has won three straight in the Open Men’s, two straight in Explorer Men’s and has six total victories this year. He will definitely be one of the hottest contenders for the National title in 2010. The Open Boys and Mini Groms were killing it too with Seth Moniz winning the Boys for his fifth win of the season and Cody Young taking his first win of the year with an outstanding performance in the Mini Groms.

OPEN AND EXPLORER EVENT #4

SEPTEMBER 12-13, 2009
CONDITIONS: Perfect 3-4 foot surf!

By: Miko Parker

We had a great weekend at Lahaina Harbor on September 12-13 for the fourth stop of the NSSA Hawaii tour. It was the best contest of the season yet as we were blessed with epic 3-4 foot surf which allowed for some red-hot surfing throughout the two-day event. Both Lahiki Minamishin and Ka’oli Kahokuloa scored perfect 10’s with the head judge calling Lahiki’s wave the best ride of the season thus far. Alisha Gonsalves ripped her way through all of her heats to end up on top in both Open and Explorer Womens. There is some new blood in the Explorer Girls division with Kiana Fores taking her very first win. Tanner Hendrickson took command in his local turf claiming his second straight in the Open Men’s while also ripping his way to first place in the Explorer Men’s. In the Explorer Juniors Matty Costa and Tanner battled head-to-head with Matty coming out on top. Seth Moniz took the win in the Open Boys and Kaunaloa Ng put on some impressive moves to claim his second win of the season in the Mini Groms.

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!

NSSA HAWAII EVENT #2 GOES OFF ON KAUAI

2009-07-20T00:30:00.000-07:00

There was rainbows, rain, and sunshine on the south side of the island Kauai. The contest was held at a local spot called PK's. It never rains on the south side in the middle of July but on Saturday July 11th NSSA Hawaii was being blessed. The surf was not that big at 1-2 feet but it was still shreddable. The small surf didn't stop Luke Hitchcock from throwing down 9's and 10's. He also had the highest scoring wave of the contest. Brianna Cope stepped up her game ripping her way to the Explorer Women’s final and taking her first win! Bailey Nagy, an Oahu girl, took her first win in the Explorer Girls. It came as no surprise that Seth Moniz destroyed the Open Boys and Explorer Menehuene finals scoring the double win. Kauai north shore local boy Kyle Galtes claimed a south shore double victory in the Explorer Mens and Explorer Juniors while taking a second to Ezekiel Lau in the Open Mens. And speaking of Ezekial, our newly crowned National Open Juniors champion has a new good luck charm: HIS HAIR!!! Ezekial wasted no time after his sensational Nationals performance taking a huge triumph in the Open Men’s.

NSSA Hawaii would like to thank The Beach House Restaurant, Kuhio Shores, and most of all Aunty Jody Stillwell.

HAWAII'S FUTURE - THE EXPLORER GIRLS FINALISTS.

NSSA HAWAII CONFERENCE
OPEN AND EXPLORER EVENT #1
OAHU’S SOUTH SHORE “STRAIGHTOUTS”
MAY 23-24, 2009
CONDITIONS: BEAUTIFUL WARM WEATHER AND GOOD 2-3 FOOT SURF TO BRING IN THE 2009-10 SEASON!

By: Miko Parker

NSSA Hawaii kicked of their 2009-2010 season with a perfect event. It was a hot and sunny the entire weekend and the waves were a fun 2-3 feet. The contest was held on the south side of Oahu at a break we call “Straightouts.” On Saturday we ran all of our Open Divisions. We had a lot of newcomers to our Open Mini Groms which was also won by a “newbee” named Kaunoloa Ng. Kaunoloa is a Big Island boy who also took an impressive runner up placing to Kalani David in the Open Boys. Kalani was destroying it scoring a perfect 10 in the Open Boys and he also taking the victory in the Explorer Boys.

Alessa Quizon took a double win in the Open and the Explorer Women’s. Mahina Maeda started her season off with a big FIRST time win in the Explorer Girls division. To no-one’s surprise Kiron Jabour ripped his way into the Open Men’s final and took the win.

On Sunday Keanu Asing was running back and forth between the NSSA event at Straightouts and the “Surf into the Summer” event at Ala Moana Bowls. He had back-to back-heats in both contests. Keanu surfed his NSSA HAWAII Explorer Men’s final and at the end of the heat, a Jetski picked him up and drop him of at Ala Moana for his Surf into the Summer heat. Keanu Asing is NSSA HAWAII’S very own 007! Keanu is off to another fantastic start to the 09-10 season winning the Explorer Men’s final and making the Open Men’s and Explorer Juniors finals.

In this first event of the NSSA HAWAII 2009-10 season all of our surfers had a great time and a terrific warm up to what they have worked so hard for all year: The big showdown at the NSSA NATIONALS!

NSSA HAWAII REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS PRESENTED BY RVCA
MARCH 21-23, 2009
KEWALO BASIN, OAHU, HI

Written by: Miko Parker

KEANU ASING TOOK COMMAND IN THE OPEN DIVISIONS.

The 2009 NSSA Hawaii Regional Championships kicked off on Saturday March 21 and ran through Monday, March 23 at Kewalo Basin. Hawaii’s top and up-and-coming surfers were on hand to battle for prestigious Regional titles and also to earn valuable 6-star ratings points towards qualification to the 2009 NSSA National Championships. Kewalos delivered three days of consistent good surf and great weather and the competitors took full advantage of the contestable conditions. Day one kicked off with the elite Open Mens competition. After plenty of heavy heats and tough competition, four of our most amazing surfers Keanu Asing, Kolohe Andino, Alex Smith and Lahiki Minamishin were left standing! But it was Keanu Asing who was in sensational form and came out on top to take the premier Open Men’s title and also nail the victory in Open Juniors. Keanu delivered a phenomenal performance in both finals posting perfect 10’s. Kolohe Andino made four finals taking the win in Explorer Boys while coming in a close second in Open Mens. Kolohe also made finals Open Juniors and Explorer Juniors.

ALESSA QUIZON SEWED UP HER SECOND STRAIGHT OPEN WOMENS REGIONAL TITLE.

In the Women’s categories, Alessa Quizon showed off her outstanding potential with solid maneuvers to clinch victories in both the Open Women’s and Explorer Girls. This was Alessa’s second consecutive Regional title in the Open Women’s. Two-time National Champion Leila Hurst ripped the Explorer Women’s final and looks to have an excellent shot at defending her Explorer Women’s title at the Nationals! It came as no surprise that Maui local Ian Gentil surfed his way into four finals claiming the Regional title in Open Boys. He also stepped up his game in the upper Explorer Boys age category with an impressive runner-up placing. Ian also placed 5th in the Open Juniors and 5th in the Explorer Menehuene finals! When the Open Mini Groms paddled out they immediately went to work pulling off moves to impress the judges! Dylan Lehmann posted 9’s in the final taking his first Regional Championship crown. Kaulana Apo battled hard with Dylan and came in a close second.

2-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPION LEILA HURST TAKES THE EXPLORER.

After all of the fantastic surfing came to a close, the contest was followed up with a great championship banquet at The Hard Rock! NSSA Hawaii would like to express its thanks to all of the individuals who came out to support NSSA Hawaii surfers and present special awards. 1999 National Open Men’s Champion Fred Patacchia, Rory Parker, Rico Jimenez were on hand to present their awards. There were also lots of our former surfers who provided special awards such as Dustin Barca,Joel Centio, Danny Fuller, Mikey Bruneau and Flynn Novak who could not attend but conveyed meaningful messages to all of our Hawaii surfers.
