The Legend of Eddie Aikau...

Wow. What a story. A sad story.

I used to surf a few years back and had only ever heard of Eddie, but had never done any research into what the man was about.

Then a couple of days ago, I saw that DSTV was running the old ESPN movie "The Legend of Eddie Aikau" and knew I had to see it.

Unfortunately, Youtube does not have the full movie available (probably because of ESPN copyrights) but they do have the trailer for the show.

Do yourself a favour. Watch it. Then, if you possibly can, watch the full, tragic, 90minute movie. It will touch you.

Only at the end do you realise why the man is a legend.

Sorry brother...I see Youtube, in their wisdom, have taken the video out of circulation for SA (doesn't make sense). I'm not sure where you would be able to view the whole thing now...grrr...
