Justice calling.
There is rotten and there is lousy and there is also next-level bull roar. Now, it is one thing to borrow a surfboard, another to not return, full trash to straight steal but to steal from someone who has lost usage of their very legs and had one customized to compete in the adaptive surfing championships?
Well, next level bull roar.
But let us travel, together, to Hawaii where the aforementioned just so happen to take place ahead of the Access Surf’s Hawaii Adaptive Surfing Championship.
A burglary at the Ewa Hotel in Waikiki has left one competitive surfer beached.
Spike Kane was set to hit the waters of Waikiki Beach this week for Access Surf’s Hawaii Adaptive Surfing Championship, but Sunday morning, he found that his custom made board was gone, Kane spending the rest of the day searching for answers.
“We checked to make sure no staff had moved it and then they checked in the storage room.” Kane told Hawaii News Now. “We went all around the property, couldn’t find it.”
Kane says that Hotel security showed him footage of two individuals on a moped taking his board at about 9:00 p.m. Saturday night from the Hotel garage.
Two individuals sharing a moped is bad enough (unless they are both deeply enmeshed in the ska life).
Two individuals sharing a moped and stealing an adaptive surfboard?
Utterly rotten and I trust Hawaii to take care of this nasty business.
Hey Chas, while you’re focused on the adaptive surf comp why not do a piece on a classic Aussie bloke dubbed “Mono”? Got quite a tale to tell and is a better tube rider than most on this forum I’m sure! 🙂
Fuckin Chas I knew I hated you.. one of those, “the Pads are the best team ever…” but they’ve never won anything, are in second to the Dodgers currently and lost to aforementioned team last year in the playoffs; a year when the fans were claiming WS before the season started.. I know you write such shit to hopefully get a rouse from someone, well guess what…it worked.. fuck you

where they gonna a fence it, a chop shop? much sympatico for the contestent at La Jolla Shores.
Do you really trust the Waikiki cops?
Can not be trusted to investigate a murder, much less a stolen adapted surfboard thingy.
That’s for gaddam sure, endless supply of fucking dirtbags in Waikiki. It’s sort of like restaurants in NYC: you could never get ripped off by all of them because even as old ones die from fentanyl new ones open up shop every day.
test strips and microchips now available…PROUD!
Aggressive moped riding…sounds very Brazzo to me. Did they have tats, gold necklace? If my theory is right, we shouldn’t shit on them bc you know they grew up in poverty.
May I just raise another theory; what if it was THREE guys, two riding the third, who identifies as a moped?
Just throwing that possibility out there.
Five Guys Voted The Best Burger in…Santa Monica. Feeding time at the trough Surf City-adjacent!
Once they realise they have stolen a wave ski ( aka goat boat) they will really be pissed…
Spare a thought for the blind surfer, who has paid for a trip to Waikiki for the competition but has actually been taken to a desert location just outside Las Vegas where they have set him up on a beach chair and telling him the surfs to flat to surf.
😞
One of the other competitors probably got it done to hobble him…
Now the poor cunt hasn’t a leg to stand on
Tonya Harding style.
They were on the moped they stole from Koa Rothman, no less.

Maybe it was conjoined twins on the moped, and they couldn’t walk? So they saw a sweet adaptive surfboard and decided to adopt it to help themselves share the stoke.
Eh?
Did you ever think about that before casting aspersions?!?!
You make me feel deep shame.
Of course they’d only be sharing the stoke with themselves, so they’d probably be cancelled by the NYT.
Upvote for shame – we need more of it

Aspersions is one of those words that looks wrong when written
