T&C Staff Revels in Holiday Affair

On Sunday night, the T&C Surf Hawaii crew came together with over 500 staff members, team riders, friends, and special guests for an unforgettable celebration at the Republik. It was an evening filled with great food, great music, and even better company—an event that truly delivered on all fronts!

This annual gathering is the perfect way to unwind and show appreciation for the hardworking staff before the hustle of the holiday shopping season begins. The evening kicked off with a short live performances by Music & Rhythm, followed by Sophia Noel from the North Shore. The energy continued with a fun and spirited competition, as store teams showcased their creativity in a talent show with T&C Ala Moana claiming top honors.

Excitement peaked during the prize drawings, which offered a variety of gear from gift cards to sunglasses to skate and bodyboards—ensuring no one went home empty-handed thanks to the generosity of our vendors. The grand finale? A thrilling trip-for-two giveaway to Las Vegas!

Guests enjoyed a feast of local favorites, including ahi patties, shoyu pork, and fried chicken from Tanioka’s, paired with a made-to-order sushi bar. The delicious spread fueled everyone for an energetic night of dancing.

The festivities attracted industry leaders, T&C surf team riders Billy Kemper, Joey Johnston, Koa Yokota, Jacob Turner, and Bella Eberz who enjoyed the celebration along with T&C skate legend Darren Ho. Our team of surfboard shapers: Glenn Pang, Makani McDonald, Tommy Tanaka and Travis Hashimoto were also in attendance.
