Duke Kahamoku is the very best when it comes to Hawaiian people and Hawaiian surfing. His portrayal of what a real Hawaiian person is, is the very best.
watch my video Is John Severson part 1 and part 2 to see how I discovered that my father might be one of the biggest names in surf history and how he responded to my request for the truth.

Just wrote a 5 minute speech on Duke Paoa Kahinu Mokoe Hulikohola Kahanmoku and was humbled my findings. Olympian, Father of Modern Surfing, and ofcourse International Ambasador of Aolha. Long Live the Duke!
I used to see the Duke walk past me as a kid at the Waikiki Yacht Club. He used to dress to the 9's in an all white suit. He looked totally amazing. I knew who he was, and was in awe, but I wished that I had walked up and sad hello. Truly a great man.
Thank You Mr. Duke for bringing surfing to California. RIP.

Awesome interview. That sure is old, because Duke passed away in 1968. I dig his statue too located on Kalakaua Ave. at the beach.
