Sport HD here

Remember I mentioned Intova was coming out with a new camera like the GoPro. Well it's on the market and comes with the wide angle lens and LCD screen. I'm looking forward to getting some sick shots with this camera on my next trip! Mahalos Joe for always supporting Red Sea!

Hot Hawaii

Today the sun was shining so bright I had to cool off with some Onolicious shave ice or some say ice shave. I tried the rainbow flavor with ice cream and condensed milk on top and it "broke da mouth". Last time I had gone around the block 10 times this time I pulled up and scored first time:)

Maui Sporting Goods Fall Shootout 2012

This weekend we checked out the maui sporting goods fall shootout and it was a great event.  lots of friends and divers came out to participate. Kurt Taguma worked hard and we were stoked to be able to help sponsors the event.
Terrence Takahata, Sonny Tanabe, and Frank Farm are the legends of spearfishing in Hawaii.  They have done so much to promote the sport and we are so proud to have mentors like this to follow in their footsteps.

This years Hawaii's Wall of Fame divers were honoring Lance Otsubo, Jason Hijirida, and Travis Kashiwa for their contribution to the sport.  They represented the USA in portugal and continue to help new divers excel their diving skills to new levels.  Congratulations guys and Mahalo to Maui Sporting Goods for hosting this years event.

Got Kagami

Past few days my dad has been busy working on painting Gyotaku of a Kagami caught by some fisherman on our trip to Mexico.  It was really nice and the details put in brought the fish back to life.  The streamers on the dorsal fins are longer when the fish are smaller and as they get older the streamers disappear.
Then today, my friend Puna Apio calls me up and asks if we want to print another one?  Wow this one is bigger but I think the boys on the boat want to eat sashimi tonight while its still fresh.  Good job Puna!  I'll be waiting for my slab:) ha ha!

Hope everyone had a nice Labor day holiday off relaxing.  I sure did!  Catching up, cleaning up, and gearing up for our next Red Sea Ocean Adventure.  We've been getting lots of positive comments about our last HSD show in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands so we decided to air part 2 featuring Maro reef and Pearl and Hermes Atoll.  This was the most wildest place we visited with all kinds of fish in relatively shallow water.   We also seen the most gray snapper, "uku" in dive ever!  You don't want to miss this show, airing tonight Tues. Sept 4, at 8:30 pm on channel 12 or 1012 or via the web at www.oc16.tv.  Tune in and thanks again for watching!
