This is the initial new design for the Hawaii State Bodysurfing Association shirts / logo. The colored design shown above is printed on the back of the shirts' (T-Shirt, Tank Tops or Long Sleeved) & also stickers. The colored design for the shirt is twelve inches in diameter.
This art design was done by Tim Murphy, an outstanding artist from Kauai. He definitely created that retro art feel from the 1970s when there were posters from the surf movies like Five Summer Stories, Fluid Drive & The Lost Island of Santosha. I really love this design because there's a Bodysurfer indabarrel! It's Classic!
Our HSBA Hawaiian motto: Hopupu i ke kaha nalu =
To be extremely emotionally excited about bodysurfing.
To bring bodysurfers together.
FRONTSIDE DESIGN FOR THE SHIRTS
This design is a black and white 3.5 inch logo, printed on the frontside of the shirts, close to the heart on the left side. All shirts are printed by Wade Morisato the brother of HSBA Treasurer Neal Morisato. Wade & David Gochros also designed the outer ring of this logo around Tim Murphy's bodysurfing art. Wade & Dave gave our logo a bit of a Hawaiiana feel to our design. I love it!
On behalf of the HSBA, I would like to say mahalo nui loa to Tim Murphy, Wade Morisato & Dave for their continued support of the Hawaii State Bodysurfing Association. You are all outstanding people.
