Body surfers and boarders enjoying the waves at Makapuʻu.

Wednesday Wipeout.

Up in the air, Junior Birdman; up in the air, upside down,
Up in the air, Junior Birdman; with your noses to the ground.

"It's all about the air, Joe!" What about the landing?

I'm Feeling Kinda Spongee.

O surfe no Brasil parece ótimo!

Not Olympic Sports.

Riding a sponge? Nope! (I know riding a surfboard isn't an Olympic sport.) How about body surfing, surely the powers that be consider that athletic? Good God, sir! Are you mad? We can't allow plebians into the Olympics!

Sponge Fun In The Sun.

Just add water!

Dreaming of Summer.

A blast from the past.
