Welcome

Welcome to the Hawaii Military Surfing Organization (HMSO) website. Our goal is pretty simple - to unite military surfers and provide them with an outlet to enjoy surfing. It does not matter what level of surfer you are, what your rank is or was, or branch of service. What matters to us is that you either want to learn to surf or have already caught the surf bug. Our common thread is a distinct love and respect of the ocean combined with our dedicated service to our country. We'd recommend you cruise the website and learn something about who we are, who we accept as members, what our Community Outreach is, and what we stand for as a club. If you think you fit the mold and would like to join, then contact us by all means. If you want to support our Organization - then we have HMSO Logo Items for sale on the website on the "Gear" link. Thanks again for visiting us and we look forward to hearing from you. Aloha

Short Sleeve Tie-Dye T-Shirt - $30.00
"Limited Run HMSO handmade Tie-Dyes available for purchase now. These shirts are made in Vermont by the best Tie-Dye maker in the United States, each one by hand. No two are alike! Then they are shipped to Hawaii and are screen printed on the front and back with the prestigious HMSO Logo. Some are traditional color tie-dye, some are rasta color tie-dye, and others are good old red, white, and blue tie-dye. There is nothing more exclusively American than tie-dye and there is no Surf Club that is more American than the Hawaii Military Surfing Organization."

HMSO History
Founded by a group of military surfers with the sole purpose of forming a group with common interest. Not a rebellion, but merely a way for service members returning from the Vietnam Conflict to band together as surfers and enjoy their favorite recreational activity. Read more![]()
