The roots of Arbor run deep through the Islands of Hawaii.
Whether it be from our Returning Roots partner, The Hawaiian Legacy Reforestation Initiative on the Big Island or merely just having amazing local talent fly the Arbor flag on a daily basis.
Among one of those riders to hold that flag up high is none other than Kyle Smith.
Kyle is from the Island of Oahu and is one of Whiskey's top riders.
Last February Kyle's teammates from the mainland packed their bags and board shorts and set off for an adventure they'll never forget.
If you asked us what we did out there I'm sure everyone would answer, "everything."
Whether it was skating the Legendary Wallows ditch to watching 45-foot waves at the Eddie Aikau contest, I'd have to say our list of "to-do's" was handled along with those hard to accomplish bucket list wishes.
Shout outs to Kyle and the Smith Family, 808 Skate Shop and Noel for feeding us so proper!
