Tori Wonsowicz laces up her roller skates at Geiger Park in Ewa. Triggered by pandemic conditions, fueled by nostalgia and boosted by social media, roller-skating is making a comeback on Oahu. Every month, from East to West Oahu, Kailua to Mililani to the North Shore, more than a dozen skating sessions are held on a regular basis. The Kapolei Inline Hockey Arenas, a roller-skating rink that had previously focused on hockey, has been offering public skating on weekends, drawing capacity crowds.
