When you’re a grommet and you find out you’re going to be sponsored, it’s pretty much a dream come true. When you’re a sponsored grommet and you’re flown to the Quik Pro for two weeks to sit in the Snapper lineup and be sprayed in the face by world champions, be given tips on what it’s like being a pro surfer by Jeremy Flores and Freddy P and have a professional photographer teach you how to get the sickest shot, that’s just next level. Kehu Butler from New Zealand, Lennox Shell from Avoca, Rio Waida from Indonesia, Kael Walsh from Western Australia and Marco Mignot from France have been living the dream and now they've got the taste of life on tour, there's no turning back.

Growing up in Western Australia has its perks, the biggest perk is uncrowded waves. Just check out local grommet Kael Walsh in the clip to see how many people are in the line-up of six to eight foot glassy offshore barrels. Count them. It won’t take long.

Kael Walsh, the Inaugural and Current u/14 Australian Champion from Yallingup in Western Australia has been pushing the limits for a 13 year old! Check out this little clip of him surfing at home..
