Use to live around the way from the Sugar Mill. There's a decent pizza place across the street. (Jerry's)Crazy how I went from homeless in Waikiki, to living on the beach (in a house) watching Triple Crown All Day! (Lived right across from Pipeline for awhile 2) Then going to the bar at night (Breakers) and watching\and taking about surfing! Crazy times! Think it's getting close too making it back out there? And then just don't leave.....
This is a great documentary.
Andy’s last quiver, that got me ...

Nah bruh. It should inspire bro
They are a part of something so special with all the very best in the area come together that truly love what they do
Lived in Waialua in 86 ,87. Have fond memories of the mill. Had no idea of the secrets that this particular stretch of coast held. Thanks to coworkers and some eccentric residents this place opened my eyes to incredible experiences
Wow I see some of these shapers in Vlogs, so cool to see the story behind it all, so interesting! Great Video!
Great time capsule and insight to the roots of board building. Thanks guys for sharing the journey
I’ve been blessed to befriend and work with these awesome guys. Congrats on the video!
I visited this area for the first time in February and got to chat with Eric! Super friendly and down to earth! Hopefully the area stays the same with all the amazing shapers!

We agree!
Shoutout to filmmakers Michael Cukr and Travis Ferre they’re like the kings of the “human interest piece”
Love this video! Stayed on NS to visit family and passed this sugar mill everyday. Never knew the history behind it, thank you for the video! Super bummed outside entity bought it instead of letting locals keep the space 😞
Hahaha.. Shane Dorian saying is this they place where JC is going to “chop me up” I thought exactly the same thing when I first went there also. Got to speak with JC one on one actually about Shane’s black & orange board for Jaws.. think it was a 9’6 x 17 x ?? with a beak nose. Was a fantastic day and hopefully they get to keep doing what these guys are doing.
Any way we can make a petition or something to keep this place? Many legends here and I would like to visit it someday
Pretty cool knowing the fact that John Carper's son plays in FIDLAR
Need to stay together no matter what happens to the sugar mill.
Someone at Waimea, goofy footer--surfed that board, Shane used at, Jaws Peahi.
Best board design ever, for me, was: 6'2" 2 1/4" rails--18" w, square tail-pulled in. And, I bet, a bigger version works better and, better. Transitions are, futuristic. Shaper=Michael Baron, for Byrne Surfboards. I was, sponsored by, Baron before- Stubbies AUS clothes.
MCGI...GOD BLESS
Salam damai dari indonesia..cheers..
Was hopin Akila Aipa would pop up in the video
They do a great job looking out for each other regardless if alcohol drugs or chomos or Traffickers or you never get your boards back from Emory who knows....their has got to be a better place more fair and affordable
Very sad ending.
It said, in Surfer magazine--Pyzel was Australian? Picture of, Florence and some other, person.
Yoo
sugar biz is a nasty business . glad that true craftsman now work there.
WHERE IS JACKS REEVES AND THE BREWERS? MAHALO TOMMYT.

Tellement peu de respect...tellement peu de vues...... le surf est mort.
