About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exchange and share great experiences with interested parties.

ABOUT ME

Im a ADD surf bum, engineer, photographer, paraglider. I have traveled a few places and would like to see so much more. I grew up in Hawaii and enjoy all it has to offer. Its great views hikes and waterfalls are beautiful. The beaches here are amazing and I grew up surfing some of the best waves in the world. The paragliding is great and I have seen the island from amazing perspectives. I want to see more of the world this way.

PHILOSOPHY

You can be afraid, but you should face your fears and take a chance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Many things,
But I dropped in on a 4.5M wave on the North Shore of Oahu and skimmed the edge of the most powerful force in Nature, and didn't wipe out... Wish I had a picture... And I flew off the top of the Koolau mountains in my own glider...
