“We are thrilled to collaborate with Proper Rideshop to bring their safe and cutting-edge programming to the Resort, for a fun and engaging camp that is entirely unique to Hawaii,” says Graham Williamson, Resort Manager at Four Seasons Resort Oahu at Ko Olina. “Skateboarding has become an iconic sport for Hawaii’s youth culture, and it seamlessly merges surfing and snowboarding, making it an ideal sport to enjoy anywhere – no waves or snow required, just proper and safe riding technique.”
The skate-filled Thanksgiving weekend will also include a special appearance by local skateboarder Heimana Reynolds on Saturday, November 24, 2018. Heimana, tapped as Pro Skateboarding’s next big star at the age of 10, has just returned from the 2018 Skateboarding Championships in Nanjing and will represent the sport in the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. His parents, Matt and Samantha, founded ProperRide to foster their son’s early affinity for the sport.
The Reynolds family turned their lives into skateboarding with the opening of Proper Rideshop, and Heimana spent every second he could in the street, bowl or park honing his craft.
As the first resort-style skateboarding facility in Hawaii, Four Seasons Resort Oahu x Proper Rideshop Skate Camp is designed to empower, encourage and build confidence through skateboarding in a safe environment. The Skate Camp will feature three sessions November 23-24, 2018, offered to children ages 7 to 17 years of age, with private lessons available upon request. The camp is available to skateboarders of all skill levels, with no previous skateboarding experience required. Mini-shredders will learn the fundamentals of skateboarding and safety skills, while also building social, mental and physical skills.
