He aha nā kāmaʻa maikaʻi loa no kāu hana o waho?
Nui nā ʻano kāmaʻa o ke kāmaʻa i ke kālepa i kēia lā, e pili ana i nā hana āu e makemake ai a me nā mea e kū pono i kāu mau pono. Mai nā pāʻina kahakai kamaliʻi e kū alualu i nā kime kālepa kūloko, ʻo ka mea āu e ʻaʻa ai ma kou mau wāwae, ʻo wai ʻoe. ʻO kahi lā e piʻi ai i nā alahele hiki ke lilo i pōʻino me nā kāmaʻa hewa.
Inā ʻoe ʻoe i ke ʻano e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i nā hana like ʻole o waho a ʻaʻole ʻoe i koʻikoʻi i mea e hōʻoia ai i nā kāmaʻa kūikawā i kēlā me kēia hākō, ua hana ʻia nā kāmaʻa multisport nou. ʻO kēia ʻano o nā kāmaʻa i kūpono no nā hele i ka paka, ka piʻi ʻana i ka mālamalama o ka lā ma ke alihi nui, nā pāʻani leʻaleʻa i ke kula, a he kōkua nui no ke ola ma ka hoʻomaha. Hāʻawi ia iā ʻoe i multitask i ka manawa like a hoʻolako iā ʻoe i ke kākoʻo a me ka versatility e hoʻōki ʻole i kou ʻoliʻoli.
Inā makemake ʻoe i ka makemake a inu i ka adrenaline, a laila e koho i nā kāmaʻa hoʻokokoke. Ua kūpono lākou no nā māka mauna me nā traction maikaʻi loa a me ka piʻi ʻana i ka hiki, akā nani ka hoʻokele no ka hoʻokele hale kūʻai. Hoʻohana ʻia nā pāpale o nā kāmaʻa mai kahi hāmeʻa hakakā a ke ʻano like me nā kāmaʻa piʻi ʻana ma mua o kahi hāhā piʻi. Hoʻolālā ʻia nā kāmaʻa hoʻokūkū e hoʻolako i kahi mauna a i ʻole ka mauna i kahi waihona paʻa a paʻa a i ʻole ka holo pōkole a holo ʻole paha i kou wahi piʻi. ʻAʻole pono e hoka loa kēia mau kāmaʻa i nā kāmaʻa piʻi. ʻOiai he makemake nā mea piʻi he nui iā lākou no ka piʻi maʻalahi ma luna o nā terrains he nui, ʻaʻole hiki iā lākou ke hoʻololi i nā piʻi paʻakikī.
A laila aia kāu mau hana ma kahakai. Inā pāʻani paha ʻoe i ka volleyball a i ʻole wale nō kaʻauʻau, nā kāmaʻa hāmeʻa koho maikaʻi. Nui nā hōʻailona a me nā hiʻohiʻona e koho ai. Ua kapa ʻia kēlā mau ʻano kāmaʻa i kapa ʻia he Mandals no ka mea ua hoʻohana ʻia lākou e nā kāne (a i ʻole New Zealand slang Jandals). Ua kūkulu ʻia lākou me nā ʻano waiwai he nui. Hoʻohana nui ʻia ka lole i hoʻokaʻawale a me nā ʻili i kahi kūwaha kaulele. ʻO kēia mau kāmaʻa i kahi manawa hoʻoneʻe i ke kuʻekuʻe wāwae hoʻoneʻe e hōʻemi i ka wāwae wāwae a he kūpono no ka hoʻokūkū kahakai. ʻAe lākou i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka mea hoʻohana ma luna o kahi ʻāina i ʻole me ka pau ʻole o kāna mau kāmaʻa.
Inā ʻoe e ʻimi wale i ke kahakai a ʻaʻole pono ʻoe i ke kākoʻo a me ka hoʻouluʻau ʻana i kahi kāmaʻa hāmeʻa, he Flip Flop nona. Aia ia ka mea i ka wā mākole (maʻamau) paʻa i ka wāwae ma nā ʻāpana ʻelua mai ke aniani a me ka ʻili, ka mea i kapa ʻia. Ua pālahalaha kēia mau kaula mai loko mai a i waho o ka wāwae a pili i ka slot ma waena o ka manamana nui. ʻAʻohe kahi kāwili i ke kuʻekuʻe a piʻi ka ʻūhā i lalo, e hana ana i kahi kani rocker.
Loaʻa nā Flip flip i ka moʻomeheu o ka papa heʻe. Ua lilo nō hoʻi lākou i nā kāmaʻa i kēlā me kēia lā i loko o nā kūlanakauhale. Ua kū nā Flip flop i ka hōʻike o ka manawa a lilo i mau kāmaʻa kaulana loa o ke kauwela.
