We now call this most amazing of water sports surfing, but in ancient Hawaii, where this unique form of recreation was born and first refined, it was called he'enalu, a poetic Polynesian word used to describe the wonders of being moved so swiftly and naturally by the sea.
Many centuries have passed since Hawaiians first surfed, but those same timeless waves that they rode so regally still rise from deep in the Pacific, striking this island group's pristine reefs and shorelines and generating powerful energy vectors that any surfer will tell you are their sport's ultimate challenge.
