About Us

Our Philosophy:

We love making cool stuff for our friends and if you have one of our products, we regard you as one of our friends.   We do try to get to know each of our customers personally  - their needs always come first!

We’d love to hear from you.  We make it our missions to try and answer all emails personally.   Sometimes mix-ups do happen, and if so, please contact us immediately. We’d love to talk to you about solving any issues or special requests, although all sales are final.  Returns for manufacturing defects and shipping damage will be handled through our our warranty program.  Please call us 808-960-4667 or 990-7776 or email us at ianf@hyprnalu.comor lauren@hyprnalu.com So don’t be shy, give us a call !

Our company name – HYPR is derived from the Hawaii Performance (HI-Per), but we decided to spell it our way HYPR!  It is also an accurate superlative description of what we want & expect our products to stand for- the best.  All of us at HYPR have been Active Waterman all our lives, swimming, paddling, surfing or sailing….basically anything to do with water.  We’re lucky enough to be able to do it all in Hawaii.   We have combined our experience in art & science and started  on our journey of crafting Na Pono Kai “Ocean Necessities”.  Our products range from composite carbon fiber Outrigger canoes to Surfboards.

Join us as we embark on this journey of discovery and experimentation to create the best  Ocean Necessities – tools to help rejuvenate and rejoin our connection to the oceans all around us.  We do not just encourage the “Na Pono Kai” mindset….we live it.

We at HYPR wish you Mana Mana’o.  You can’t have Ocean Mana without playing in it.  Once you do, you learn to love and protect our Oceans.

Mahalo Nui.
