Nathan Elms Age: 16 years old. Where do you live: Jersey. Favourite surf spot: La Piste, France: because it’s super fast and barrels. Where have you been in the last 12 months? Morocco at Christmas, England for some of the UK tour stops, then Ireland (which was sick!), and then France in the summer. Who do you surf with mostly? I mostly surf with the boys at The Splash. Music? Mainly drum and bass (Chase and Status), Gallows and some rap. If you could be anyone for a day who would it be? Dane Reynolds so that I could pull off huge Kerrupts all day long!

What is the worst thing about being a grom? Having older kooks dropping in on you. How’s it feel to be in the British Team? Yeah, it’s good to be in the team and especially now the World’s are in New
Zealand. All the other guys surf really well in the UK so it’s hard to get in it. What is your favourite food? Steak baguettes. Now that you are doing well in contests and stuff are you getting more chicks?
Haha! So far it hasn’t made much difference. When I go out, sometimes the odd chick realises the potential! If you were your dad, what advice would you give yourself? There’s 10 grand: go and live in Australia till it runs out!
