kainalu easter challenge

little timmy

The Kainalu Easter Challenge brought most of the premiere paddlers in the State of Hawaii to Wamainalo to compete in the Tahitian rudderless canoe. The windy conditions and lack of foot pedal navigation had all the competitors laughing and comparing notes as to how to manuever their boats. It was cool to see seasoned guys like Many, Jim Foti, Aaron Napoleon and Mike Judd stimulated by the complexity of the event. Athletes are always looking for their next challenge and Stefan Lambert, the race organizer from Tahiti, brought it to them.
More importantly the event flowed into a festive party at a local beach house. With Tahitian music playing, beers flowing and mahi mahi on the grill, the paddlers and their families enjoyed the rest of the evening together.

Thanks Little Timmy.
My guess here is that you took everyone's text message's during a 4 hour period during the race and partying. Scrambled them-and then put your own twist on it. Nice style
