Yep this dude has been killing it for a long time everybody in Hawaii knew and now the world is getting more and more wise to his antics.
I was at the Girl open house the first time he entered it (2009) and he pretty much blew everyone away but somehow ended up getting second place, the next year he went back and lit up the brand new redesigned warehouse and won the whole thing.
Was on flow for Lakai but who knows what happened with that, they probably have so many guys in limbo and they didn't know at the time how huge of a monster he was and was going to be, too bad, he would have worked out killer on Lakai and fit in perfect with the style they have now with Raven, Vincent, Riley Hawk, Jon Sciano, seems like they are into these kind of guys that skate fast and are super gnarly all around shredders.
Probably will be pro real soon, most likely within 6 months if Foundation knows whats good, they probably do so I'm looking forward to seeing his name on a board.
