A story unfamiliar to those outside of surfing (and that one episode of Drunk History), Eddie Aikau should be a name as big as any of the great sports stars. But his fascinating life (and tragic death) is largely overlooked. Lucky for us, ESPN's continued excellent documentary series 30 for 30 shines a light on this pioneer, lifesaver and inspiration. As uplifting a story you will hear, even with the death comes a new life and though Eddie Would Go may still be mostly confined to the world of surfing, we could all learn a lot by following his example.
