I didn’t ride the way I wanted, but I wouldn’t trade my experience for anything. Also a massive thank you to @axisfoils and @frank_foilboards for putting me on the best gear possible. Can’t wait for next year 🫶
Mahalo to @wetfeet_hawaii and @chris96825 for sharingWay cool to include the #molokaiholokai2024 in with two other amazing events @paddleimua and @molokai2oahu with the title of the #KoaKaiTriplecrown #koakai the name that was given by one of Molokai’s most respected KupunaShare you posts and tag us and we will share to our followers 😊😊@Hawaiihta @countyofmaui @molokai_outdoors @paddleimua @molokai2oahu @youthinmotionhawaii @SeeMolokai @VisitMolokai @standupmagazin @alaskaair @kamakaair @mat5o @oceanpaddlertv @m2molokaichallenge @molokaiholokai Repost from @chris96825 • Coming off an awesome weekend foiling @molokaiholokai (27mi) and @molokai2oahu (39 mi), almost 70 miles across both races. These two major channel crossings were my first on foil and taught me so much about the racing in this sport: the requirement of 150% unabated concentration (for sooo long), endurance, mindset and my body’s needs for nutrition. Super proud to finish M2O, it’s a race I’ve watched my dad compete in for years and one that I’ve always wanted to complete solo. Feeling grateful for an awesome team, our world class community (@voyager_foiler), super Kaiwi conditions and excellent equipment to pull this effort together. So stoked to be participating in this sport right now and can’t even begin to fathom what’s possible next year!A huge mahalo to all who supported me in bringing this to life, to those who sacrificed hours waiting for me because I was “late” getting out of the water (😂) and to my amazing friends and family came to welcome me home at the finish line. Congrats to the other athletes who were out there last weekend, inspiring to see the caliber of talent pushing the limits.@wetfeet_hawaii Awesome opening 📷: @mikeitophoto
Great story from @cash_berzolla and this was quite the voyage from island to island three islands in two weeks! #molokaiholokai2024 @m2molokaichallenge @molokaiholokai @Hawaiihta @countyofmaui @molokai_outdoors @paddleimua @molokai2oahu @youthinmotionhawaii @SeeMolokai @VisitMolokai @standupmagazin @alaskaair @kamakaair @mat5o @oceanpaddlertvRepost from @cash_berzolla • There’s not much more unique and more pure than crossing from one island to another with just the power of your body and nature.Ever since I was 8 years old paddling with my dad in the Olukai Ho’olaule’a, I wanted to someday compete in and navigate the Pailolo and Ka’iwi channels. This week that goal was accomplished 🤝 (even though it was on a more modern vessel; sorry dad I wanted to go faster 🤠.)Beyond grateful and honored to be a part of the Koa Kai Triple Crown; which included the @molokaiholokai (28miles), @molokai2oahu (38 miles), and the @paddleimua (7miles). The paddle Imua brings ocean lovers from around the world together to not only compete but more importantly to support Camp Imua, a recreational camp experience for the children of Maui County with special needs 🙏🫶. It’s events like these that make me proud to call this place home.Thank you to all the event organizers and volunteers for making these events possible as well as all the communities of Molokai and Oahu for being so welcoming.Big shoutout to @armstrongfoils for allowing me to support and represent such an awesome brand filled with so many passionate people. Also thank you to my boat captain @natevolk_ it was an absolute mission and it wouldn’t have been possible without you 🤙🏽. Looking forward to next year!Riding: 8’2” 98L DW Performance FG board 795mm performance mast 60 fuse 685 DWP X Speed 180 tail
