A few Florida groms are turning a lot of heads lately, namely ours. First, 14-year-old Ormond Beach Da Hui / T&C Surfboards teamrider Tyler Crawford sent ESM an eye-opening self-promo video showcasing his surf and skate skills (the kid's hot), and then 14-year-old Merritt Islander, Cocoa Beach Surf Company's Jimmy Walker, sent us word of his accomplishments. Both gremmies compete frequently in the ESA, NSSA, and FSA and are honor roll students.

Nipping right at Walker and Crawford's heels, though, is five-year-old (!!!) Luke Marks from Pompano Beach, FL. Luke started surfing a year ago at his homebreak, Hillsboro Inlet, and has already acquired sponsorship from Surf World. He also swims competitively and is a sponsored motocross rider for Team Miner, out of Stuart, FL.

Watch out for all three of these youngsters ripping at a beachbreak near you.
