Ep 84: Riding Sand Traps on a Recumbent Trike

Grandpa is riding is trike on a closed golf course with son and grandson searching for sand traps. Why? You’ll see.
Mahalo nui loa for riding along with us as we trike all throughout the Hawaiian islands.

I ride a HP Velotechnik Scorpion FS26 recumbent trike . Here's a link with more gear and facts: www.coconutjoe.com/trike.html
Gear Note: I maintain a simple gear footprint. Accompanied by iphone, gopro max and Skydio drone, I do all my own filming including drone footage. Audio is captured on my phone and then married to the video footage in iMovie where I do all my own editing.

Great video. You had more fun on a golf course in that 7 minute video than I have had playing the game for 60 years!

The boys and I go back and do it again and again whenever they come out and visit my wife and I. There’s just something about riding the links. Sure beats riding on the highway. 🤙🏽

Aloha, Bob!... Great seeing you, your son, and grandson having a great time riding together on the old golf course sand traps. Loved the Coconut Joe background music. Keep on Triking!

[@hawaiiantrike-surfkayak]

Mahalo Tom. Yep,it’s always great to ride with the boys. Happy rolling. 🤙🏽

Hey Bob! Good to hear from you looks like a great time riding with your family. A good use of gulf corse make them into bike N trike parks 🤗

[@hawaiiantrike-surfkayak]

Good idea about recycling the older golf courses. Actually right next to the golf course there are about a half dozen single track trails that the resort maintains. The boys love it. Aiden just got his very own electric assist MTB. They’re going to leave me in the dust. Aloha

Only sand trap live ever seen you in!

[@hawaiiantrike-surfkayak]

Woah Nellie. There was a time 20 something years ago that Super Bob ‘Palmer’ walked the links. Okay, I sucked but I’ve actually got sand in my sneakers and have damaged a few carts. FOUR!!

Curious as to which model of 360º camera you are using. It appears to be square. Is this one of the GoPro 360 models?

[@hawaiiantrike-surfkayak]

I’ve been using my 4 year old GPro Max 360 for ….4 years. I’m so disappointed that GPro has not delivered a new version. It has a typical 12:9 ratio and I do like editing with their app and I use it for surfing footage as well. It’s just not the best 360 camera for today. Lately I’ve been using my IPhone 15 pro max for most of my videos. Rumor is that we should get a new 360 max this year. Yeah, that’s been said for two years now. life goes on.

You’ve gotten the boot from so many golf marshals.. don’t they recognize you by now?

[@hawaiiantrike-surfkayak]

I haven’t been booted in in a long time. I actually met one guy and we had a nice talk together. He was cool that I wasn’t riding when golfers were on the course. At times, the hotel lets their clients walk on the course as well. I just need to be conscious of the golfers that are out there.
