HAWAII'S GO BIG MOMENT

This winter season, wave riders across Hawaii have a new challenge: the Hawaii Go Big Moment Contest. Unlike traditional clip contests, this unique virtual competition welcomes all man-powered wave riding vehicles, providing an inclusive platform for a diverse range of ocean enthusiasts.

Participants can submit clips featuring any wave-riding craft, from surfboards and boogieboards to wa’a (canoes), handplanes, and whatever creative ideas you may have. We're just saying, no sails, e-foils, or motors are allowed.

Submissions open on November 01, 2024!
