Yeah, it's forward facing ASL "Y" Still, the shaka originated from a Hawaiian Latter-Day Saint, from Laie, home of BYU-Hawaii & PCC Our Poly HC, Kalani, who grew up in Laie, encouraged it Still want to stick with that "Appropriation" accusation... Ute?

A Handy Way to Rep the Y

The Hawaiian-born shaka—the "hang loose" hand symbol—hearkens back to Laie Latter-day Saint Hamana Kalili. And now the symbol reps the Y at BYU and beyond.

Way to appropriate the shaka..which is about a Hawaiian sugar plantation security guard who lost his three fingers. It's a universal sign to spread the Aloha spirit, not to signify BYU Athletics. Leave it to obtuse haoles to steal it, just like the sovereign Hawaiian Islands.
