World Record: The Longest Surf Session Ever! (Via surfeuropemag.com)

Those who appreciate the value of a good old-fashioned challenge will be interested to know that 30-year old South African surfer Josh Enslin recently surfed for over 30 hours straight, in an attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the longest surf session ever.

While Guinness is yet to confirm the new record, early signs would suggest that the attempt was a successful one. The previous record stands at 29 hours and 27 minutes, set by American Ben Shaw in North Carolina last year. Enslin’s effort, completed at Pollock Beach in Port Elizabeth last weekend, constitutes an improvement of 44 minutes; he called it quits at 30 hours and 11 minutes.

According to the rules stipulated by the Guinness Book of Records, in order to break the record a surfer must remain more or less constantly active during his time in the water. Thus, over the course of a session spanning two days and one night, Esslin caught an unofficial total of 455 waves, which works out to around a wave every four minutes.

Kept under close supervision throughout, Josh was allowed a ten-minute break every two hours to grab a bite to eat, go to the toilet (erm, wetsuit?), that sort of thing, which if you ask us is borderline cheating, but whatevs, Guinness said it was cool. Perhaps they could have made him drink a pint of Guinness every time he went for a break? It was a Herculean effort in any case, and one that raised 30,000 ZAR (just over $2,000 USD) for street children and impoverished surfers in the Port Elizabeth area.

“It really was four seasons in two days,” said Enslin. “The toughest part for me was the 02:00 [A.M]- to 04:00 [A.M.]-stretch. Conditions were freezing, fatigue had set in, and my body was freezing. The waves had picked up as well, so I was duck diving all the time.”

Josh is a very good surfer, although it’s unclear whether or not the rides documented in the video above are shown in chronological order. It’d be interesting to see how much his performance deteriorated as the session went on — presumably a lot.

Christ does he look fucked by the end. Have a look at those eyes, the poor man!

The Stolen Nation of Hawaii

The United States of Hypocrisy - The Stolen Nation of Hawaii 

Here is the FULL LENGTH Film

Published on Jan 12, 2013

Documentary by Ken O'Keefe (2001)

Produced by Ken Nichols O'Keefe in early 2001, this is the virtually unknown story of Hawaii and the hidden Genocide being committed by the American government with the use of 'blood quantum' for the purpose of eliminating the Hawaiian national; and the reason America does this? Because according to their own laws, America never lawfully annexed Hawaii*, therefore according to law Hawaii never became a state, and if the Hawaiian land was never lawfully annexed, the only true claimant to the land, is the Hawaiian national.
Could Hawaii become a free nation once more? Nichols O'Keefe not only argues the possibility, he shows the peaceful, lawful process by which the Hawaiians (kanaka maoli) intend to free themselves of the American occupation; an occupation that has lasted well over 100 years, an occupation that has turned their island paradise nation into an American Empire military outpost, one that continues to be used as a staging ground for wars of aggression resulting in ever more death and destruction.

In 2008 the legislature of the reinstated Hawaiian Government (with Representative Ken O'Keefe of District 6, Oahu) passed a law that outlaws all weapons of mass destruction in Hawaii. In this bold move the Hawaiian Government has reached out to the world to see just how serious we are about ending imperialism and American domination of the world. Thus far the world continues to be oblivious to this cause and O'Keefe argues is missing one of the greatest opportunities of our time to affect disarmament and increase the chances for peace.

* Annexation was affected by joint resolution because the two/thirds majority that was needed to annex territory was not possible. In addition, the US Congress confessed in UNITED STATES PUBLIC LAW 103-150 that Hawaii was obtained by a conspiracy to overthrow the lawful government of Hawaii and furthermore that the Hawaiian people and nation have never relinquished title to their national lands. And to add to that, the anti-annexation petition that was circulated at the time of the proposed annexation of Hawaii to the United States had the signature of virtually every single Hawaiian living at that time.

Hawaiian Roots - Surf history

Published on Nov 18, 2013

Nobody knows were the Polynesians began to surf. Fact is, the Pacific Ocean is the birthplace of surfing. Hawaiians may have lost their kingdom but surfers, have been the leaders in a struggle for environmental and cultural rebirth. They may have been pushed off the land, but have not yet lost the waves. Their surfing roots go back thousands of years, when chants and songs began to honour surfing. Today native surfers still rule the surfing world passing on their Hawaiian spirit and always referring to their Hawaiian roots and values. Their stories lead the way. Here's a historical flashback.

Celebrate Life / Help Cliff Makaena

I’ve recently been reminded how short and fragile life can be, as my good friend Cliff Makaena just had an unexpected open heart surgery (triple bypass) on Monday 3/7. It was shock to everyone including himself as this life changing event unfolded over just a few days. 

It was a 5 and a half hour surgery on and the doctors were the great. They performed a triple-bypass to open up his arteries (100% blockage, 80% blockage, 75% blockage). After surgery he said that just taking 10 steps was a lot of work after having his chest opened up, and now he can hear his own heart beating! He said to thank everyone for their support, and in his own words :

"you don't even know how much that means to me, you don't even know. I love you all."

Cliff is a bad ass musician, father and friend. He has coordinated countless benefits and fundraisers to those in need over the years. So I wanted to do something special for this guy that had helped so many, so I did, I thru a fundraiser to help him during his recovery. 

Here's Cliff in Action...

The idea really started with a couple of people wanting to figure out how to help Cliff while having a few drinks after work. So we picked a day and started spreading the word that we would be at the Hanger Inn in manhattan beach on 3/18 from 2-6pm and we were going to round up donations for Cliff. 

I call up my buddies and next thing I knew we were having a raffle and had a photographer (Don Klesges) to take some pictures that we could share with Cliff because at the time he was still too weak to attend.

There is also a fundraiser on line so that anyone around the world can help Cliff, even a little can help go a long way. I was hoping you could help me spread the word. Thanks!

So here is how things went down.. Check it out!

I got Cliff a gift and everyone helped contribute by signing a guitar case for his favorite fender strat. I've always wanted a Strat guitar case full of money, even if it is just to give away to my friend Cliff Makaena. This has to be the longest time in Cliff's life that he has not been able to play a guitar and I can't wait until he's back up to full speed again. This new signed guitar case will be a reminder to him that he has a world of fans!

Thanks again to everyone that helped make all this possible. Cliff is the nicest guy in the world and it feels good to help someone that has helped so many others. So if you would like to help, you still can. You can share this this page with others or donate a few bucks online to help a good guy out.
