Grom Report: Ezekiel Lau

introezekiel.jpgGrom Report


Ezekiel Lau is one of those kids who doesn’t say much, but he doesn’t have to, he lets his surfing do the talking. When Zeke does have something to say, he’s articulate and witty. A Kamehameha student, he’s definitely all there. Zeke is known for his fins-free surfing and his shaved head, a testament to his determination to win Nationals. Keeping that dome glowing must be a daily ritual. Respectful of his elders and peers, Zeke can be seen hitting lips and pulling in from Kewalos to Bowls on a daily basis. Right, left, lip hits and airs, he’s a staple on the south shore all summer and known to put his time in the water at Pipe and other various locales all winter. Zeke’s holding a nice bag of tricks and with his focus on surfing backed up by classroom knowledge spilling out from his ears, he’s ready to grow his hair. —Tony Heff

FREESURF: It seemed like you just took off on a roll this year. Granted there was some talk of a rivalry between you and Sally [Fitzgibbons], but it seemed like it was more of a matter of when, not if, you would secure your title this year. Was there a point this year when you felt like, “yeah, I can win a title this year”?

Carissa Moore: I think every woman on tour wants and believes that they can win a world title, otherwise they wouldn’t be competing at this level. Dad and I talked about the title a few times, but never more than using it as motivation. Sally was nipping at my heels the whole year and there was a placement shift halfway through where I was nipping at hers. It was so close that I never really could let my guard down, just had to keep my head focused and take everything one step at a time. When the seconds started counting down in the Steph-Sally semi in France and Steph was ahead, I think that was finally the moment that I let it all go. Read more...

Freesurf: What was your life like before you became a team manager?
Rainos Hayes: Well, I grew up on the North Shore pretty much in the same place that I live now, kind of by Sunset Beach. I was a pro for a while and rode for Quiksilver from about 15 to 25 years old and had a limited amount of success.
