Oahu Onshore Adventures with Big Island Mike : Skateboarding at Wallows!
Season 8 : Hawaiian Adventures : Episode #209
Hello Friends,
On this weeks episode I meet up with Oahu Legend Big Island Mike (https://www.bigislandmike.com) who is kind enough to show me around Oahu.
Big Island Mike rode as a sponsored BMX rider for S&M Bikes and Monster Energy Drinks through out the 90s which lead to him traveling the world riding in Matt Hoffman's Bicycle Stunt Series. Mike was a judge for the X-Games for 25 years and has been tattooing for almost as long. Mike tattoos in Los Angeles at the legendary Shamrock Social Club (http://shamrocksocialclub.com) and in Oahu at Hale Nui Tattoos (https://halenuitattoos.com) and at his private studio on the west side the Secret Ninja Warehouse.
I was introduced to Mike by my tattooer and our mutual friend Shawn Barber and I mentioned to Mike that I planned on finding and skateboarding at the legendary Wallows ditch made famous by the "Search for Animal Chin" video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgBm0Ly5Rmg). Mike said he would take me and so we spend the day living out my boyhood dream of skating this legendary spot and we hit another skatepark and finally ended up at the Secret Ninja Warehouse.
At the end of this episode there are some clips of Bobby Kimani doing some flatland bike tricks that are amazing. check him out on instagram at http://www.instagram.com/bobbykimani
