22 years at Hookipa

by Graham

Today marks roughly 22 years of my going to Hookipa. Yet amazingly, this is the first year where I can just focus solely on windsurfing. For the last 4 years, I’ve been away at Princeton studying. And before that, I was always busied with high school.

For the first time ever, I’ll be able to plan my days around windsurfing. When I was in high school (a local school located above Makawao in Olinda called Seabury Hall), I got out at 3pm most days and 2:30s on Fridays. Now I can get to the beach at noon every single day. I can actually train like a real athlete.

I’m excited to see where it will go.
