== Early life and childhood ==
Takayama started surfing during his kindergarten year at Waikiki Beach on the south shore of Oʻahu, Hawaii. At 45 pounds, his 95-pound redwood surfboard was too heavy to carry home.〔 Takayama decided he would have to keep his surfboard at the beach, so he buried it in the sand for safe keeping.
Dale Velzy discovered Takayama while surfing at Mākaha Beach. Velzy noted that none of the young surfers where attending school and told Takayama that if he ever got to the mainland, there would be a job waiting for him.〔 Takayama bought a plane ticket to Los Angeles, at twelve years of age, with money saved from a newspaper delivery route.〔 Takayama worked for Velzy/Jacobs Surfboards and lived in the loft of Dale Velzy's Venice, California surf shop.〔
