Learn about big wave rider and musician Makua Rothman in this short film about how he grew up and life as a local on the North Shore.  Although he is associated with the tough and protective surf gang Da Hui, he understands that showing Aloha and kindness in life will always take you much farther.

“I’ve learned over the years that you get a lot further with Aloha and being nice and creating wonderful relationships with people, than being this tough bully punk kid, you not going to get anywhere you might be in jail or you might be dead.  Love and respect will get you a lot farther than you know bullying and trying to be thuggish.”

-Makua Rothman

Who is JOB 4.0 : Tubing & Shorebreak Madness – Ep 2

The reason for posting this video is solely to display mother nature’s beauty in a late winter phenomenon that occasionally happens at Pipeline. During the winter months big waves bring pro surfers and spectators to the North Shore of Oahu. On the strip of beach at Pipeline sometimes a pond builds up, locally named Beaver Creek. This occurs when the swell direction changes as the sand builds up to first form a cove and later becoming a pond. Skip to 4:20 to see the naturally forming beach pond, and watch Jamie O’Brien and friends build a ramp to launch into it.

Nectar – The Sweet Life

Using Go Pros and drones, surf videographers & photographers are trying to take videos and photos from angles never seen before. This guy nails it using a drone, with such clear conditions, barrels, and no reef, I’m sure someone from Da Hui will be requesting he remove this video.
