Kyuss King’s had a one-track mind to become a professional surfer since the first moment he stood on a board.

If there’s a single place you need to prove yourself in order to reach “pro status”, it’s on the North Shore of Oahu. At 17 years old, Kyuss has put in a solid amount of time along the 7-Mile Miracle, each and every year. This past season he brought his game to a new level.

From experiencing his first session at Waimea, to charging Insanities, and tearing apart Haleiwa, Kyuss is shaking out of the grom days and into the big leagues.
