Race Information
About The Mormaii Moloka’I Pai’lolo Express Race- Handsome Bugga Productions and crew is proud to announce the inaugural MOLOKA’I PAI’LOLO
EXPRESS RACE. A stand-up paddle race, it is set for July 11, 2010. The race will originate from Honolua Bay, Maui, known to many as the home of best
wave in the world and will terminate at Kaunakakai Harbor on Moloka’i. Paddlers will traverse the Pai’lolo channel.
The Pai’lolo Channel runs between the west coast of Maui, the east coast of the Moloka’I, and the north coast of Lana’i. What makes the Pai’lolo Channel
unique compared to other Hawaiian channels is the challenging combination of wind and ocean patterns. Trade winds funnel between the islands of Maui and
Moloka’i increasing the velocity and consistency of the wind. Typically blowing steadily at 20+ knots producing open-ocean swells ranging from 3 to 5 feet.
This characterizes the first two thirds of the race. Approaching Molokai and Lanai, in the final third of the race, wind speeds can vary, either holding or
dropping a few knots thereby producing smaller wave action. Paddlers will find that this race calls on their knowledge of open ocean currents and swells as
well as demand good conditioning.
