Mr. Haole. Yeah Hawaiian surf breaks are as competitive as any track day or sport in general. Everyone is going for the same wave all the time. And locals can easily spot visiting surfers. We dont apologize for it, and its no different and sometimes worse in other places. San Francisco, South Africa and Australia are every bit as bad. Me and my GF have driven down to San Diego several times and I have surfed Blacks and around there. Was that you that dropped in on me that day?

There is localism everywhere and it is understandable to a certain extent. For some reason Hawaiians seem to take pride in bashing any visitor in the water though. When I see guys barking at kids in Waikiki on rented boards I'm pretty astonished. It just reeks of ignorance and is a trashy way to live life. It must be that Aloha spirit! Maybe that isn't you, but it sure seems so from your previous comment. |

My comment was half joking really when you think about it. What you say is true. Most times the big Samoans - Hawaiians arent very good surfers anyway and use their size to their advantage. Im a Haole (Caucasian) too, but I lived there my whole life so everybody knows me. One other thing, if your a good surfer and not endangering anyone you get accepted alot faster. A surfboard in big surf is basically a lethal weapon in the hands of a junk or inexperienced surfer. I cant wait to ship my M3 back there so I can get to the surf faster. Im sure there are other surfers on this forum. Let yourselves be known!

Honestly I dont blame the OP for asking..have you seen how confusing the manual is for the M3..it took me reading it about 4 times to figure what BMW was trying to say..M drive this.. M dynamic that..yatta...yatta..Half of it is all marketing hype anyways
OP just get in the car and push every button..its what I did. |
