Just 14 year-old, Eli Hanneman from Maui is doing damage not only at the Hello Pacitan Pro in Java this past weekend but also… his face. He maneuvered his way through plenty shallow, heavy lefthand tubes to make it to the semi-finals, but in his Semi heat Eli’s face connected with the shallow reef. The promising talent had to exit mid-heat and tend to his facial lacerations. Luckily he’s ok, nothing major and we can all expect to see Eli charging freesurfs and comps soon.
