Honolua

BONGA PERKINS

As a world champion longboarder who never finished lower than fifth place in the international rankings, Bonga has earned respect as a superb Hawaiian boardrider, carving out a special place for himself in the world's heaviest lineups: Haleiwa, Pipeline, Backdoor and Sunset Beach.

He has also excelled in a whole range of boarding activities, and may be the ultimate all-round waterman. Nobody does as many things on a board as well as he does.

KIVA RIVERS

At 26, Kiva is considered the next generation of ocean pioneers. With Buzzy Kerbox as his mentor, it isn't a surprise that Kiva excels in all water sports and is a fierce competitor with a great Hawaiian-style, positive outlook.

He is definitely carving his mark in the water as a champion longboarder, amazing shortboarder and overall talent as a well-rounded waterman.

CHRIS DEL MORO

Raised in Florence, Italy and currently living in San Diego, Chris' unique diversity as surfer, artist, clothing designer, world traveler, environmentalist and just all around good guy adds welcome creative and authentic energy to the Honolua Brand.

I'm looking forward to spreading the Honolua aloha across the globe through my travels, surfing and art,' says Chris.

BUZZY KERBOX

A true waterman who embodies style, knowledge and the agelessness of the Honolua Surf Brand, Buzzy Kerbox is as "core" as it gets when it comes to water sports. He was first known as "Kailua Kid" at Velzyland, Oahu, Hawaii and now resides in Maui, Hawaii.

ARCHIE KALEPA

Known as a legendary big-wave surfer, Archie is an accomplished waterman who is one of a handful of men able to successfully tow surf the enormous waves that break on Maui's north shore every winter. As a member of the Polynesian Voyaging Society, Archie is dedicated to resurrecting interest in the traditional Hawaiian sport of canoe surfing.

ERNEST EJ JOHNSON

EJ discusses a recent race:

"I am so stoked to have been able to participate in the First Annual Velauno Pro SUP Run in beautiful Puerto Rico, from the flat protected waters of Condado Lagoon to the challenging Atlantic.

He has also excelled in a whole range of boarding activities, and may be the ultimate all-round waterman. Nobody does as many things on a board as well as he does.
