Welcome to Doo-Dah
Off-Ramp brings you an encore edition of the Doo-Dah Surf.
At Doo-Dah surfers don silly costumes and hit the waves. Their goal: combat the aggro attitude that's taking over some surf spots.
John Rabe served as a judge along with local celebrity Charles Phoenix and the creator of Sponge Bob Square Pants.
Aloha,
Off-Ramp
Doo Dah Surf - Part One
John gives a blow-by-blow of the costume contest and we meet a surf folk artist and Surfing Santa.
Also, wanna know why surfers get agro? Steven Kotner, the author of West of Jesus, says the answer can be found in science.
The Duke of Surfing
Duke Kahanamoku (1890-1968) won five Olympic gold medals for swimming and "became surfing's ambassador to the world."
Is that his caddy in the suit, or Dashiell Hammett? Photo circa 1925.
Doo Dah Surf - Part Two
Off-Ramp commentator Milton Love has some ontological questions for the creator of Sponge Bob Square Pants, and we find out what makes those ukulele plays strum.
Doo Dah Surf - Part Three
Find out why Charles Phoenix likes business suits, meet a butterfly surfer and get the inside scoop on the judges as they hang on the bluffs just south of Gladstone's restaurant.
Hang Tiki
Tiki Tony enjoys the best of both worlds.
Surf Break
Doo Dah surfers take a break before the surf breaks.
Time Capsule
These surfers at Surfrider Beach show that old habits die hard.
