Hitching is fairly easy. French is strongly recommended. English will do the job but be prepared that you will have strong communication difficulties.
Hitching in town is useless. Walk out of town for at least 2km. The route road around the island is marked every kilometer with a markermarking stone, which is called "PK". (pronounce it something like PEH-KHA)
Along the way there is lots to see next to the road, sometimes its only a 15 minutes hike and you are at stunning waterfalls, etc. Go get a map at the tourist office and ask for directions. Do jump off any car whenever you get to a spot, you should be able to find a new lift quickly. After around 20km outside of Papeete hitch hiking becomes very easy and you won't wait longer than a few minutes.
