Sometimes we just shake our heads at our readers’ choices, but on this one, they nailed it. Just last month, Eli, who’s from Lahaina, won Surfing America’s 2014 USA Championships, which was held in Trestles, California. He’s 11, and he’s been skating since he was three and surfing since he was five. “He simply rips and has a work ethic to match it,” states a Mar. 14, 2014 Filtrateeyewear.com blog post. “He has everyone turning heads in the lineup and everyone psyching on the progressive surfing coming from such a little human…It’s been a pleasure watching Eli progress over the last year and we are beyond excited to see what is in store for the little Legend.” So do we. @apignataro
