Week 3 High Performance Winners

Our Girls High-Performance winner for week three was a fantastic GoPro Point of View submission from Skai Suitt @aimfortheskai

Skai is from Oahu Hawaii and has a stylish but powerful and aggressive approach to the islands waves that marks possible greatness in her future.

Skai Is our halfway mark leader in the @gopro POV category and because of that she is receiving a brand-new Hero 10 camera from the great folk @goproanz

 

Sydney’s Sol Gruendling @solgruendling was a clear stand out winner for the High Performance Video of the week for week 3.
His video had a bit of everything from tube rides, to great off the bottom off the top combinations, flare on both the backhand and forehand but it was the airs that made it an easy decision this week.
Sol is doing full rotation 540 like the best of them and landing enough times to show and for us to know it is no fluke, this kid is on fire and getting better all the time.
Sol is boosting so we are giving him a @boostaus prize pack including 12 months connectivity and iPhone to keep him charging towards his goals.

Stand Outs!

12 yr old Kiwi Indi-Lee Ruddell @indi_goes_her_way put smiles on all our faces with her frothed out thumbnail and great surfing video. Indi is from Whangarei in the Nth Island of Aotearoa (NZ). 

Indi you are receiving a STOKE AWARD and will have a @hurley_anz @hurley prize pack heading your way!

This kid @alldaydylan has the potential to be anything he wants within the surf world!!

Dylan has grown up surfing perfect waves everyday in the Mentawais (Dad Ray runs @kanduiresort) and here we see the rewards of this epic lifestyle.

Here we have three entries into 3 categories – BEST TUBE, BEST AIR & BEST WAVE!

Can’t wait to see what comes next from this 12yr old grom… and in the meantime, we have a @sunbum prize pack heading your way Dylan!

Sharing the stoke!

The stoke is high over in Bali as my good mates @driftersurf come onboard to support the kids in the Video Challenge. 

The guys at Drifter are all about surfing and art and with this in mind we had to reward Russian born Grommie @platonzi for his artistic and action packed edit.

Thanks @jakedrifter and the team for the love and congrats again Platon.

Last weeks winner

Our High Performance winner for week 2 Leihani Zoric @theminishakas chose Amazon Power @amazonpower as her prize pack because Acai is her favourite food.
We received over a thousand comments on that post making for a great final decided by the public with Catalina Zariquiey @catalinazariquiey and Chesney Guinotte @chesney_guinotte
Thanks to everyone who voted, commented and supported the kids.
