Yeah, before the boggie board came the Paipo board, knee board and sandslide boards.
At Makapuu we used to use large air bags too.

Wasn't the first McD in Aina Haina?
Wisteria...used to love going there!
And Pearl City Tavern with Monkeys, that was cool!

Remember the Ranch House? Or did someone mention that already?

Yeah...like picking clams in Kaneohe Bay!
Walking down the trail to the water and using a screen mesh to sift out the sand.
Then going forward a decade or two, doing the same thing on the North Shore to look for Puka Shells and Paper Shells.

There was another drug store with an orange sign, but I just can't figure out the name of it. I know there was one in Kalihi shopping center by Foodland

EDIT: Rex-All drug store!!!

Save Sandy Beach..i used to support them with contributions...and the guys that used the air filled big garbage bags, those were always cool. i remember mr santos used to be out at generals (outside sandys shorebreak when it gets big) and be riding his garbage bag.

I remember my first skateboard had metal wheels won at a carnival.....Then came the clay wheels with Chicago trucks which we all thought had a lot of grip.... then came urethane Cadillac wheels, The Kine, Slicks and Stokers, Road Rider 4's, Excaliber Trucks and so on....Pre-Ollie days....Remember the sky hooks used to jumping the curbs...For body surfing devices were the homemade hand boards with surgical rubber straps, McDonald's Tray, Hydro Disk....Early Hawaiian boogie boards were wooden varnished plywood Pipo Boards used at Waikiki walls or Nanakuli sand surfing.....Remember Captain Honolulu getting out of his helicopter turning his hands into upside down sunglasses at the end of the Bozo The Clown hour...I remember the old cartoons like King Kong, Princess Knight, Squidly Didly, Ruff and Ready, Roger Ram Jet, Rocky and Bullwinkle.....Wow those are old memories....
