Of all the up-and-comers who have been riding the hype train over the last year, none have really stoked the engine like young Griffin Colapinto. He burst onto the tour at Snapper, bagging a perfect 10 in his first event, and looking at the surfing the kid does in any vision we see of him, it seems as if the hype is very much warranted.
In this edit from a summertime session at Lowers, we can only wonder what he would do if the event were still on tour. Lookout for him in the pool at Le moore, we’ve got a feeling he could do major damage.
