Amazing how young surfers are trying to make difference in the surfing world!

I met up with Carissa Moore and Mahina Maeda at Kewalos today. Carissa started the Rookie of the Year award for girls at NSSA National Championships and Mahina was the winner this year.

Carissa wanted to congratulate Mahina in person even tho she is super busy so I decided to take some photos of them together.

I think it's great what Carissa started, remembering where she started and giving back. I know lot of little girls look up to Carissa and I feel she's a great role model for everyone. she is so humble, always smiling and very approachable despite of her success.

Congrats Mahina and thank you Carissa for being a great role model for all the younger kids!

Ezekiel Lau has been busy appearing on different tv news trying to have schools recognize surfing as a "sport".
