## Caption

From the beaches of South Africa to the biggest waves on the planet, jordysmith88 is one of the most celebrated surfers of his generation. 

His father Graham introduced him to surfing at an early age, and the kid from Durban made it count. He won the World Junior title in 2006 and joined the Championship Tour in 2008 where he was crowned Rookie of the Year. And two decades later, he’s still going strong. Eight WSL wins, Olympian, a world title chase in 2025, and most recently, inducted into the Surfer’s Hall of Fame. 

None of this possible if he didn’t Keep Showing Up.
