EL NUEVO JORDY EN INDO

Jordy Lawler es un joven que empieza a despuntar. Desde mediados de Noviembre sus resultados han sido increíbles. Se marcó una victoria en el Grom Fest del Sur de Australia, seguido de un viaje hacia el norte donde ganó el Volcom VQS en Goldcoast y unos días después se quedó a escasos puntos de llevarse el título de Australia Junior en la categoría sub-18, quedó segund en el Sunny Coaster Eli Steele.

Parte del éxito de Jordy se debe al apoyo de sus fieles seguidores. Su viejo amigo Dave, es un entrenador de surf muy respetado de Sydney quien ha viajado con su hijo y acompañado en todas las sesiones de fotos.


Jordy Lawler is a young kid on the rise. Since mid-November his results have landed more one-two’s than an Ali-Foreman fight. He nailed a win at the South Australian Grom Fest, followed that up with a North Coast road trip which netted him a runner-up in the Volcom VQS on the Goldy, and then a couple of days ago he was within a few points of taking away the Australian Junior title in the Under 18’s, eventually coming second to Sunny Coaster Eli Steele.

Part of Jordy’s recent success is due to the supporters in his corner. His old boy, Dave, is a well-respected Sydney surf coach who has travelled extensively with his son to comps and on photo trips. And then there’s the fact that the kid is managed and mentored by ’88 Pipe Master and World Champion, Barton Lynch. “I can’t explain how important he is to me,” said Jordy of B.L. “Even when I’m going through down stages he will lift me back up and help me with all the grief.”

Cool dad’s and World Champs aside, most of Jordy’s success can be credited to a proven formula of dedication and lust for the sport of surfing. In order to take his surfing to the next level the 16 year old plans to do some serious travel: “Fiji, Tahiti, America, Hawaii and the Maldives, and in between I’ll do some pro juniors.”

Keep your eyes peeled. In a few years time there may be two Jordy’s on the World Tour. And one of them will be tearing the world to pieces with an air game as solid as his power turns.

Saludos a todos!
