Do you have GoPro mounts on your boards?

We do not have mounts on our boards, however you are welcome to bring your own mount and put it on the board to use during your lesson or rental. Afterwards we will remove it from the board. All personal GoPros are mounted and taken in the water at your own risk and can fall off if not properly attached. We are not responsible for loss or damage of your GoPro.

During each lesson, we have a photographer in the water taking photo and video footage on a GoPro. This footage is available for purchase before or after your lesson.

This certification puts Ohana at the top — not just for surf, but for how we show up for Hawai‘i every day. View Certificate
