Griffin Colapinto is dangerous in every kind of condition, which is why he's arguably the most feared of the next generation of Championship Tour surfers, and one of the most exciting young surfers, in or out of a competition jersey.
Colapinto has already bagged some big results -- including becoming the first Californian to win the prestigious Vans Triple Crown of Surfing in 2017, after making back-to-back Finals at Haleiwa and Sunset Beach, and third-place finishes at Snapper and Pipeline.
