Named by members of the Tongg family in the 1950s for the curved or bowl-shaped section at the east end of the wave. (from John Clark's Hawai'i Place Names) |
Allyn Bromley, 2003 I surfed Castles, Duke's and ? there wasn't even a name for the Diamond Head area back then. And no one used to surf there but me! Some people used to use those plywood boards that had a cork plug in them. They took on water and would be so heavy the board would practically be submerged. Did you know we never " hot dogged " back then? The boards were too big, too heavy, and we only knew to ride straight in on a wave... xoxoAllyn
