Isaiah Gregory diligently developing his surfing prowess

SATELLITE BEACH, Fla. — Isaiah Gregory’s dad, Travis, has been surfing since he was eight years old. Living beachside is essential to him for this very reason. Isaiah was watching Travis surf since before he could walk so Travis was elated when Isaiah told him right before he turned 4 years old that he wanted to “surf by myself,” after tandem surfing for a short period.

His drive and skill have progressed quickly with the help of local pro and coach, Jon Holeman, who he trains with monthly. Isaiah surfed in his first local competition on 9/11/21 in the Gnarly Charley summer series and was instantly motivated by the “huge trophies” that Charley gives to the winning contestants. In less than a year, Isaiah has earned one 2nd place trophy, two 3rd place trophies and one 4th place trophy in the “7 & under” division and he has also earned one 2nd place trophy in the “9 & under” division. While he has not earned 1st place in a division yet, he is eager to start the next Summer series and his goal is to not only win 1st place in his divisions, but he is aiming high for an overall series Championship trophy! Surf’s Up!!
