Six years ago, I was watching this video. I had a strong conviction that the boy would stand out. Six years have passed, and Eli is now confirmed for the 2024 CT. Looking at this video again, it's evident that it was all predictable from the start. It's quite likely that we will see him become a world champion. Congrats Eli!!!
My dad started surfing in the Mid. 1950's myself 1975. both of us taken aback. Progression. (John John, Andy, Slater, Curren, Occy, Foo, Horan, Carroll, Gerry, Buttons,Thompson, MR, Dora, Dewey, Kunze, Velzy, Noll and Eddie.)off the top of my head. I've surfed with all except Dale and Eddie. I'm booking a flight to Lahaina Town soon, My old bones need to see this. WOW
The standouts of every generation are getting better and better, doing things that were impossible a few years back. I guess board design is the main reason and also improving on what others are doing. I started surfing in 1972, I’m old and shot now. How I wish we had today’s boards back then.
Eli wow looks like you're on your way just have fun with it and stay true to the reason why you started to surf in the first place and the surfing world will take care of you, you're amazing lil brotha!! Maybe olympics, it's coming up as well, excited to watch you surf and watch you're career develop
very lucky to be able to surf because I'm in the surf. I've tried windsurfing but it's not nearly as exciting as real surfing. I'd been surfing for a long time just because the waves in Hungary aren't so big it's true you can travel to another country but we don't have that much money.
I don't think anyone realised he used the same board for weak small 1 foot waves to well over 20 feet wave, the kid is a legend and the shaper doesnt get nearly enough credit, he is as amazing! I just want to know which board he rides
Surfing is about more than just competing and being insanely good, just because you don’t think you are doesn’t mean you should let it crush your dreams I mean it’s one of the funnest things on the planet
He is not already John John, he physically needs to develop still and develop more power. Exceptional talent no doubt but there is a lot of it around these days, a highlight reel and working for a world title are two different things.

I grew up with Slater in Florida in the 80's. We knew what was coming. This kid walks on water! Can't wait for the future!
Nixon bray
Can't wait to see him on tour!
Put him on tour now.
Music worked perfectly, don't think I've ever felt emotionally compelled watching a surf edit before. Great job!!

He Carves with some real power! Airs are sick... rail grabs no heads! Definitely going to be a real competitor!!
Eli made the Big show!! No stopping him now...🌊👣
He doesn't know what is the fear and he'll be a legend
Aside from his age, the versatility of his maneuvers is beyond impressive 🤩
Daaamnnn! This kid is out of control, he is going to be one of the bests! Keep it that way kiddo.

This kid has a future. Not only can he do crazy airs, but he can carve super nasty yoo.
Hell yea Lahaina boyz right there!!! Eli will become world champ one day..Maui no ka oi!
Holy moly! 🤯 The future is in safe hands!!
Wow, that kid rips, he does it all and with the style. Can't wait to see him in competitions.
Rips...yes...but it's all about style and he's got that too.

Love seeing our Lahaina boyz killing it!
Eli wow looks like you're on your way just have fun with it and stay true to the reason why you started to surf in the first place and the surfing world will take care of you, you're amazing lil brotha!!
Maybe olympics, it's coming up as well, excited to watch you surf and watch you're career develop
He makes it look effortless. This kid's gonna be a beast
Wow this kid is amazing! Already surfing like adults on the wsl.

very lucky to be able to surf because I'm in the surf. I've tried windsurfing but it's not nearly as exciting as real surfing. I'd been surfing for a long time just because the waves in Hungary aren't so big it's true you can travel to another country but we don't have that much money.
Where are the waves in Hungary?
that kid has the raddest board I've ever seen!🤙
Song is " This is my kingdom " of Marie Hines. Who is this boy ? He is awesome. And video editing is super
I hope this kid keeps surfing. He's busting 360's with ease at 14, I'm thinking he'll have 1080's down by age 18 :P
Yeah agreed
you’re on point
1080 is mentally imposible because youd hafe to calculate everything but 720 maybe
this man is awesome
This kid is amazing
The music fits perfectly 😍
I don't think anyone realised he used the same board for weak small 1 foot waves to well over 20 feet wave, the kid is a legend and the shaper doesnt get nearly enough credit, he is as amazing!
I just want to know which board he rides
Amazing talent!
Great boy! God bless you all the time!
Crazy How Time Flies He Was An Advanced Grom💪💪💪👍👍👍👏👏👏🤙🤙🤙💝💝💝🙏🙏🙏
This kid is gonna represent!
Next level fore sure. Hope its all focus and not being miserable and forced to do something he doesn't want
Proooo! I like to see this sports growing up
God Bless You men
Just Adore Him❤

Keeping things down to earth and not making ridiculous claims or comparisons is jealousy? Ok :)
Erick Tavares he's 14 not 12
Does anyone know the band and name of the song in this video?
My son loves it.

This kid is a god, don’t get me wrong, but I think that living at a world class surfing destination probably helped his case
Yeah…imagine that kid same person same genes, but grew up in Idaho or something. No daily access to surf.

Wow reminds me of watching Tom Curren when he was that age....shredder!!
Steve Scarr
Current didn't do those gay airs though
You're just so old school it's too sick for me to soak in.
Steve Scarr I was thinking of Rabbit Bartholomew.
Siamo sicuri che è un bambino,perché è un mostro
Awesome music
🤯 mind bending talent! Did he set foot on a surfboard a second after being born? 😂 He will dominate the WSL.
I wonder if anybody else watched this video ten times with mute on
Who does this song?
Give him a wildcard!

São Paulo/Itaquera. 2017
