When I first started filming the Kailua Men's Night Doubles, I was only 18 years old w/ a cheap video camera, no tripod or fence mount, & just my raw passion for tennis. My videos may not have been the highest quality (or the easiest to watch for that matter), but I'm very thankful I was able to help document some of the classic matches this event has had over the last decade. These were the origin days of Tennis Ninja TV, just capturing the moment b/c I thought it was cool. The early days of filming tennis began w/ matches like this one!

In 2010, defending '09 champions Ikaika Jobe & Dennis Lajola were establishing themselves as the new "hot team" to beat on court! Ikaika was serving as the University of Hawaii at Manoa Men's tennis team assistant coach (under former head coach John Nelson). Dennis was playing as UH's #1 player day in & day out at the time. The two ended up pairing together to make an inaugural run in 2009 & right away, they claimed a Kailua Night Dubs title, defeating Night Doubles legends Minh Le & Wei-Yu Su as well as Jan Tribler & Mikael Maatta. One year later, their opponents in the championship match would be former 3-time champs Minh Le & Wei-Yu Su. Minh & Wei-Yu once dominated the Blue Moon event, winning the toughest tennis title in Hawaii 3 consecutive years over the strongest competition the islands had to offer. However, they would be denied a 4-peat in 2009, losing to Ikaika & Dennis in the semi finals. 2010 was there chance to exact some revenge & claim back their place at the top of the mountain!
