This event allows local athletes to compete professionally right in their backyard! The HIC Pro takes place in where WSL Hawaii/Tahiti Nui Regional front-runner Barron Mamiya, 17 years old, and remarkable North Shore surfers like Billy Kemper, Finn McGill, and defending event winner Mason Ho will compete in epic waves for points, qualification, and prize money. Hawai‘i as we know is a mixing pot of many different cultures, and nearly 20 different countries from several continents are represented in the HIC Pro, including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, , Indonesia, , Morocco, New Zealand, Peru, South America, and Uruguay. The North Shore of O‘ahu is considered to be the surfing mecca of the world offering world-class waves for pro surfers to display their incredible skills, often drawing many spectators. Whether you’re out in the water or watching from the beach, here are a few tips to enjoy the events this season to stay safe and have fun.

· Show aloha: drive courteously, don’t rush, and watch out for pedestrians. · Sun protection: even on overcast days: sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, plenty of water. · Reusable bottles: water filling stations are available at all contest sites. · Binoculars: the beaches can get so crowded bring a pair to add to your experience if you’re watching from afar. · Camera: capture the moment and maybe a selfie. · Beach chair: a towel or mat to sit on would be nice Page 6 www.northshorenews.com November 8, 2017

Makua was crowned the 2015 Big Wave World Champion in the World Surf League’s first sanc- tioned Big Wave World Tour on February 28, 2015. He began surfing some of Hawaii’s biggest waves, including Pipeline and Sunset Beach before the age of ten. At eight-years-old he surfed 12-foot Waimea waves and by the age of 13 he had emerged as one of Hawaii’s most promising young surfers. At 18 he won the 2003 Billabong XXL Award for riding a 66- foot wave at Jaws on November 26, 2002, the larg- est wave known to be surfed anywhere in the world that winter. In 2012 Makua began his journey in music, a passion he shares with his family of entertainers, grandmother Grace Costa and grandfather Rob- ert Costa who always encouraged his love of mu- sic, keeping an ukulele ready at all times.

These trips bring home the many needs faced throughout the state and challenge decision makers with prioritizing these needs. Each group and project seems very worthy when presented. In my opinion, it is important to remember the core responsibilities of state government and to be careful before taking on new obligations. The most shocking experience of these recent WAM trips was the deplorable conditions in the jails. Both Maui and Hawaii facilities are vastly overcrowded. In cells built for two inmates, a third and fourth inmate sleep on small mats on the floor, next to the toilet. It is unconscionable that we have neglected this issue for so long; this is surely a core responsibility and should be a priority. The Department of Public Safety floats plans for alleviating some of the overcrowding, but there needs to be more commitment and follow through.

Support Official Event Vendors: Official VTCS event vendors use compostable materials and participate in VTCS and island-wide sustainabil- ity programs, including Surfrider’s Ocean Friendly Restaurants.
