Wahine Honolulu & Western Hydrodynamic Research Present

Tarp Surfing NYC + Pop-Up at Tom Sachs Studio

New York, NY — September 13, 2025 — Wahine Honolulu and Western Hydrodynamic Research announce a collaborative pop-up and cultural activation at the renowned Tom Sachs Studio, 245 Centre Street, New York City. The event will feature an exclusive presentation of new designs, alongside a live tarp surfing installation — introducing a performance element rarely witnessed within the city.

The Event
On Saturday, September 13, the program unfolds in two parts: a private tarp surfing shoot in the morning, followed by a public launch from 2–6 PM, where guests will experience the collection firsthand.

The Collection
Two refined hat silhouettes anchor the release, designed with minimalism and intention. Alongside, a curated selection of up-cycled garments — sourced from vintage and reworked by hand — underscores W.H.R's Wahine Honolulu’s commitment to thoughtful production and singular expression.

The Experience
This New York chapter reflects Wahine Honolulu’s ongoing exploration of culture in motion. By merging surf traditions with contemporary design, the event becomes a moment of convergence: performance, craftsmanship, and community within a singular urban setting.
