Team Bradley wins Na Wahine O Ke Kai race Thanks to no small effort and mother nature's timing, this master craftsman is once again tapping into his emotion and artistry, turning another fallen koa log left to die in the forest into something spiritual and beautiful.

I was going to walk away from it and said better not."
