Joburg Howzit!

Major Ken Wood · 22nd March 2011, 07:23 AM

Thanks to the fair amount of space between houses here in Africa, I can indulge my ambition of building a good Club system.
I have started with three Behringer EP2500s; bridged one to drive the 18" sub and used the other two to blow my bullet tweeters.
I don't claim to be too bright.

Hey Howzit? Welcome to the forum.

(and I thought "Howzit" was just a Hawaiian thing)

In ZA it usually comes as part of "Howzit Bru" (pronounced brew) for a friend, or "Howzit China" if you are pretty sure the person being greeted is a pain.
I think it probably adapted from the polite Afrikaans greeting:
"Hou gaan dit?" (How goes it)

In Hawaii?

In Hawaii it's "Howzit, Brah!" Pidgin for "How goes it, brother?"

I've met a number of ZA surfers in Hawaii, they seem to fit right in.
