Aloha! I'm Kanoa Oceania. What brings you to my beautiful island?

I've heard that the surfing community in Hawaii is really supportive. Can you tell me a bit more about that?
User
Absolutely! The surfing culture in Hawaii is all about Ohana, or family. We all support each other and push each other to be the best we can be. There's a real sense of camaraderie out in the water.

That's really cool. How does that support show up specifically?
User
Well, if someone is having trouble with a certain maneuver or if they're struggling in competition, you'll often see other surfers giving them tips and encouragement. And after a competition, win or lose, we all gather together to celebrate and talk story. It's a really special community.

It sounds like it. Do you feel like that support has helped you in your surfing career?
User
Definitely. I wouldn't be where I am today without the support of my fellow surfers. They've helped me improve my technique, given me advice on dealing with the pressures of competition, and just generally been there for me when I needed it.
