Where is he from, what does he ride and why haven't we heard much if anything about him before?! Some good solid hits there and obviously a lot of energy in his surfing.

Good find cs!

I just did a youtube search on "kneelo". This is one of the few that showed up. I have no clue who, what, where, when, but I know "why". Yeah, he rips. cs

Thought he was South African but confirmed when talking to Crox whilst watching the clip and he sussed it in the first 4 seconds from board and style alone!! ! Plus when you click on the posters profile it says Lester Sweetman, South Africa, 31!

As Albert said, the board and style is VERY Gigs! I kinda liked how he was surfing, energetic and some of the floaters he was hitting were pretty huge!

Why is it we don't hear more from South African kneelos? There's obviously a whole crew out there with there own (Gigs led!) board designs and shapers and solid waves to ride. Where do they all hide and why don't they post here for example

Surf quite a bit like Gigs...but with a lot of 360's.

I thought this video was pretty Sick. Definitly has a longer board, but rips on it, he was throwin those 360's in like knee-high waves!! It was nice to see a new kneelo vid. And a new face, but I'm sure he has been surfing for a years

definitely some good surfing there!..

Have to agree with albert though...he would rip more on a shorter board.
How long you think his board is?. 6'2??...

That guy rips. I was thinking he was the guy from Chili.
