The first day of the ISA World JR Championship was on today for the guys divisions. The waves were JUNK but Hawaii guys ALL surfed really well. They all advanced to the second round!
Every team brings some sand from their country and put all the sand together in this one tank. I think that’s a such a cool idea.
This year, Alessa Quizon got to share the Hawaii sand with the rest of the sand from all over the world!
I love how the team cheer and support their team mates. remember, these kids compete against each other all the time here in Hawaii.
Under 16 Boys congratulating Ian Gentil after him dominating his heat.
Ian Gentil surfed so good no wonder why people are saying he’s the best 13 year old surfer in the world! don’t let this photo fool you, the waves were really junk. ha ha.
Isaiah Moniz’s been surfing amazing these days too. I didn’t see him for like a month and when i saw him last week, he looked like a man. here he is doing a grown man backside bottom turn.
The most consistent, solid surfer, Keanu Asing. He makes any crappy waves look really fun.
Ezekiel Lau, Koa Smith, Tanner Hendrickson, Kaimana Jaquias, and Kain Daly did amazing too but couldn’t find any photos from ISA.
So proud of all the Hawaii team representing Hawaii. Good luck and have fun!
All photos are from ISA (International Surfing Association). Thanks ISA for the photos and the live webcast so we here in Hawaii can see our groms ripping out in New Zealand!
