“What a blast it was doing hydrofoil river surfing! Interestingly, it feels as though you’re going so fast but when you look to both side of the river everything is stationary. Never felt that much speed in my life without actually moving forward! Can’t wait to do more of it.”

Video footage will be released soon so stay tuned – Huge props to Nate Meyer for capturing this unique moment. Make sure to check out his profile!

Kai had tons of fun on the wave down there and registered to compete in the river surfing competition. For only being on a river wave a handful of times, the young Hawaiian did very well! Kai is used to the term “waterman” as he does pretty much anything he can the involves a board on water but the PRGs highlighted a new generation of waterman who surfs and SUPs far from any ocean.

It was great getting Kai’s thoughts on river surfing. With it still being so new to him I think he gave us an honest and enthusiastic view of the sport. My favourite part of the whole interview, when he said he would like a river wave in his backyard, even with perfect Hawaiian surf available.

Stoke and flow,
