Hawaiian phenom Ezekiel Lau joins the Arnette surf squad

Wed, 16 Feb 2011 09:11:53 +0000

We are so stoked to announce that hard-charging Hawaiian Ezekiel Lau (aka, Zeke) has joined the family as our newest team rider.

Born and raised in Hawaii, Zeke lives with his family in Honolulu where you can usually find him ripping at Kewalos with his friends. Known for his unique blend of speed, power and creativity, 2009 was a banner year for the 17 year-old as he was named the National Scholastic Surfing Association’s (NSSA) Open Junior’s Champion, and Quiksilver King of the Groms Hawaii Champion. Plus, in July 2010 Zeke won the High School Varsity Men's Division at the NSSA Nationals in Huntington Beach.

Standing at a solid 6 feet tall, the innovative regular-footer has a style all his own both in and out of the water. Zeke is a gifted athlete with a captivating personality and good head on his shoulders. His passion and determination are unmatched, and he is steadily growing into a serious force to be reckoned with in competitive surfing.

“We are very excited to have Zeke on the program as he truly is the future of surfing,” says Arnette Team and Events Manager Brent Bearden. “Zeke has a fun yet humble personality and he lets his surfing do the talking. He is a great addition to Arnette!”

As Zeke puts it, “It feels great to be on the team and I’m psyched to be representing Arnette.”

In addition to Arnette, Zeke also surfs for Volcom, Nixon, Body Glove, DaKine, and Fitted Hawaii. Be on the lookout for Zeke to do big things in the coming months!

Joel Centeio's OTW sequence of the week

Mon, 07 Feb 2011 10:00:12 +0000

Our boy Joel Centeio just nabbed the prestigious sequence of the week on Surfline for an Off the Wall drainer as he describes below...

"It was NW swell mixed with a little NNW so it was focusing at Off-the-Wall bigger than Pipe," Joel Centeio recalls of last week's dream run. "That was one of the better sessions I've ever had out there. I had five or six of my best waves that day. It was consistently good, six- to eight-foot Off-the-Wall with perfect conditions. That was actually my first wave of the session and there were only a few guys out so I paddled straight into the lineup and this wave swung inside. I got a decent little pump at the beginning and from there I had my speed. I was super-deep and saw the doggy door at the end. As I flew out, I threw a little claim because I was psyched on it."

Joel Centeio's podium finish at Haleiwa

Mon, 22 Nov 2010 21:48:02 +0000

Joel Centeio is no stranger to the break at Haleiwa, his lifelong home. So, its safe to say that when the Triple Crown comes to town every year for the opening event here Joel is a heavy favorite. Last year he won, this year he almost won. It was a pretty wave starved final and in the end Joel was barely etched out by fellow name bearing Aussie Joel Parkinson. But hey, second is great as it gives Joel a sweet seed and nice chunk of points heading into event number two of the Triple Crown beginning this week at Sunset Beach. Let's hope he can keep his role alive and achieve every Hawaiian's dream of being crowned Triple Crown champion. Congrats Joel, we're psyched for you buddy!
