Aloha, McKenna here. Today, we’re going to compare a couple of basic hand signals—the “shaka” sign and that favorite of all you mainlanders, the single-finger salute. For those that aren’t familiar, the shaka sign looks like the picture shown here. The other one, well, I’m sure you already know what it looks like—from both directions—front and back.
