If you want to be one of the top guys on the North Shore, you can’t just paddle out and get the wave of the day. You’ve got to train hard and put in your time, like Eli Olson. It’s paying off, too–Olson is making a real name for himself. He’s not just playing around on the mats, either. Olson’s a Jiu-jitsu brown belt brown, which is no small feat.
Etienne Aurelius, a very talented filmmaker with a name like a Roman soldier, trained his lens on Eli to show both his MMA training regime and his prowess at one of the most famed stretches of sand on earth.
