Kolohe Andino

Kolohe Andino might have been born into the surf industry, but he definitely has proven (and will have to continue doing so) that the youngster merits all the hype. Not many 13 year olds get full page ads, ride for a cell phone company, have a dad who announces world tour events, and gets to chill with the world’s best at primo wave locales. Other kids his age are multiplying fractions and blowing spit wads. The three time national champ has already collected more prize checks, signed more contracts and been in more photo spreads than most surfers twice his age. But it is safe to say that “Brother” isn’t done yet. Expect a long and fruitful career for young Kolohe.
