Some more past footage from 2021 with the virtual race on the race course

2019 was a great year……….

The Molokai Holokai Ho’olaule’a began in 2003 as Na Opio Hana Pa’a, a Celebration of Youth Opportunities. It involved a Maui to Molokai Challenge to bring ocean enthusiasts to Molokai. The event included community events and culminated in music and festivities at Malama Park. Over the years, the event evolved and adapted to community needs. However, Malama Park faced challenges and became unavailable. The hope is to bring Malama Park back as a venue for the event in the future.

 

2018 was another great year with Outside TV filming…..The Molokai Holokai is a race that features an epic channel crossing from Maui to Molokai (27 miles) in everything from SUP, Foil, and Outrigger Canoe. This race takes competitors across the Pailolo channel, known as one of the most epic crossings in the Hawaiian islands. Among this year competitors is 2x Ultimate Waterman Champion Zane Schweitzer and 9-year-old Bobo Gallagher.

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

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:

The MolokaiHolokai x Koa Kai triple crown is two days away, and we are just so excited to host another  year of racing. Don’t forget to pick up your race bag from Hi Tech on Thursday! It’s time to carb up 🤙🏽
Our hearts and prayers are with Zane at this moment. When we heard what happened, we felt devastated but so relieved that his guardian angel and his quick wits miraculously saved his life. As a community event, we stand united in our support for Zane. We lost the event’s momentum because we felt that special human beings like Zane helped keep our event alive. Zane, a testament to resilience, has been part of our event since he was 11 yrs old, when we did windsurfing. He was the first to do SUP at our event in 2008 when he was 14/15.Our event is not about the championship title but about inspiring our youth and helping to motivate them to go on and do great things. Zane is all about that, and he is our role model athlete in the Molokai Holokai.We want to give a massive shout-out to Zane and his family and wish him a speedy recovery. We so appreciate all that Zane does for not just the sport but also for inspiring kids and so many others in the path that he has chosen. Stong healing, Zane, and may you come back stronger. We love you and are rooting for you with extraordinary healing powers. We are backing this up with many prayers from Molokai, and hope the recovery training goes well 🙏🏽
