  • On this episode of This is Livin' I'll take you behind the scenes for the prestigious Eddie Aikau ceremony and the Surfer Poll Awards - two of the surfing community's biggest events of the year! It's an honor to be invited back to the Eddie Aikau, it's one of my absolute favorite events held at Waimea Bay. I was also nominated for 3 awards this year at Surfer Poll including "Best Vlog", "Best Barrel", and "Heavy Water". Oh, also I score some perfect waves on North Shore!!

    Eli Olson seems like the kid that everyone's mom really likes. "That Eli is SUCH a nice boy...!!!"

    The Eddie contest is no joke. Love how they bless it in hawaiian. You guys are something special. Respect and aloha, cause thats what uncle eddie would've wanted. Mahalo koa. Hope it runs this year.

    The ceremony was traditional and awesome to see. Both JJF and Nathan, Koa and his bro and the paddle out was freaking unreal to witness! Then Kelly (the GOAT) is there and says hello. This is Livin' is freaking awesome. The music, editing and surfing just keep getting better. Koa was REALLY killin' that last session at the end. Top 3 episodes ever by far IMO. I asked for one of your shirts from my wife for Christmas and I hope she got it. I am going to wear it and represent you guys here in San Diego! WTG CHAMPIONS!
