Hauʻoli Lā Hānau e Duke Kahanamoku! Happy Birthday to the legendary waterman, ambassador of aloha, five-time olympic medal swimmer, and surfer, Duke Kahanamoku, widely credited for popularizing the sport of surfing. The founder of @nakamakai, one of our @wslpure #WeAreOneOcean grantees, @duanedesoto had the honor of playing the role of Duke in @waterman_movie, portraying his spirit of Aloha and the culture of Hawai‘i. The film dives into Duke’s incredible athletic accomplishments, personal doctrine of aloha, and celebrates his philosophy of inclusion, challenging us all to embrace diversity and incorporate aloha into our own lives.
