A documentary on the journey to bring the gold home to Hawaiʻi.

Twelve of HawaiÊ»i’s top elite surf athletes, aptly named in Duke Kahanamoku’s honor as the Ambassadors of Aloha, were selected to compete in an Olympic sanctioned event against over four hundred competitors and forty-five nations in the ISA World Junior Championships. This documentary recounts their journey to El Salvador, as they compete through nine days of grueling competition to bring the gold home to HawaiÊ»i.
