Welcome
Welcome to the Hawaii Military Surfing Organization (HMSO) website. Our goal is pretty simple - to unite military surfers and provide them with an outlet to enjoy surfing. It does not matter what level of surfer you are, what your rank is or was, or branch of service. What matters to us is that you either want to learn to surf or have already caught the surf bug. Our common thread is a distinct love and respect of the ocean combined with our dedicated service to our country. We'd recommend you cruise the website and learn something about who we are, who we accept as members, what our Community Outreach is, and what we stand for as a club. If you think you fit the mold and would like to join, then contact us by all means. If you want to support our Organization - then we have HMSO Logo Items for sale on the website on the "Gear" link. Thanks again for visiting us and we look forward to hearing from you. Aloha
Chaz Bowser - President HMSO

Two Crows Surfboards
Two Crows Surfboards are a collaboration between artist Nick Welles and shaper Carl Olsen. After making their first boards together over a decade ago, they have reunited, combining art and function. With their Freestyle way of glassing, each board comes out totally unique and creative. The boards take an incredible amount of work, resulting in limited batches of boards, only a hand-full of times a year. Though their specialty is Noseriders, Carl Olsen can shape any type of custom boards from shortboards to stand ups and everything in between. Check out twocrowssurfboards.com for ordering information, videos, and photo galleries. If you are military - please let us know for a discount as a thanks for your service to our nation!2-27 Infantry "Wolfhound" Board Donation
In midst of the seemingly endless cycle of deployments for our fellow service members, an idea was born on the island of Oahu. A notion to give back to those who have given and continue to give so much, inspired by the freedom we share as Americans that is literally provided through the efforts of the few, gave origin to the concept. Derived from the mind of a true patriot, Johnny Moore, the owner of Strong Current Surf Shop and Grass Skirt Grille in the town of Haleiwa, Hawaii, a board was conceived. Read More...
