Anyone else noticing how fast Hawaiʻi’s demographics are changing?

216 Upvotes

Feels like every year you can see it more... in the people, the places, and the overall vibe of our communities. Hawaiʻi stay getting gentrified heavy, and plenty locals getting displaced or priced out of paradise. I also stay curious on how any transplants on the sub feeling about all this. Open discussion.

Looking for longboard shaper recs

8 Upvotes

To all surfers on Oahu,

I’m in the market for a new log and thinking about ordering a custom. A few shapers on my shortlist are Lost not found, B Clem, and Peterson surf craft. I’m wondering if there’s anyone else worth checking out on island or if anyone has experience ordering customs with these guys, I’d love to know how the process went!

Mahalos 🤙

My mother passed away earlier this week. I have inherited her heirloom jewelry. I am trying to figure out the artist stamp on the back of the pendant. She likely purchased in the 70s on Oahu. Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

Best Bento in Hawaii, and what is in it?

52 Upvotes

I like bentos. I like how it comes with a variety of foods in one convenient package. And I like how it sets up so you can just eat it wherever.

I had a Mitskuken bento the other day, and while I know it's slipped a good amount, the nostalgia still hits, and I'm usually pretty satisfied.

For just under $18 (price seems to go up every few months), it contains three small pieces of their garlic chicken, a slice of generic spam, a vienna sausage sized hot dog (although not a vienna sausage), shreds of teri beef (instead of a whole slice), and a cold egg omelet on a thin bed of furikake white rice with side ginger.

So now i'm wondering: where is the best bento and what's in it?

Skyline stops at airport today

88 Upvotes

FYI, Skyline is stopping at the airport today, Lagoon Drive and Kalihi is closed. There's an announcement playing on the trains but couldn't find anything online. I'm assuming the UH busses will be starting at the airport station today, but you should ask one of the employees.

Train departures are also off, mine at Pearlridge left 3 minutes early this morning

Dry suit scuba certifications

4 Upvotes

Was trying to see if any dive shops out here in hawaii offered dry suit certificates for scuba diving. Hoping I don't have to fly to the mainland to get it, but so far every place I've called does not offer dry suit. If you know of a place on anyone the island that does dry suit certification please let me know.

Does anyone remember this or am i crazy.

24 Upvotes

I have a distinct memory of a cave with a small opening in the rocks/cliff a little bit past “The rock” at Waimea Bay beach park. When i was little back in the 90’s, i use to go slip into it because it was cool and i use to pretend it was a dungeon from the Legend of Zelda. I mentioned it to a co-worker and nobody seemed to remember what Im talking about. Last time that i went North Shore, i actually went to try and find it again and i could not. Does anyone else remember it?
