Caleb Foster

The life of Caleb Foster is one amazing story of ultimate courage and perseverence.  

 

Caleb was the oldest of four and lost both his parents in a bad car crash when he was 17.  He's been big brother and acting father figure to his three siblings who adore his kind gentle nature.

 

Having started surfing at an early age of 4 in Maui, he spent much time surfing the South and North Shore of Oahu where the family moved to be with his auntie.

 

Caleb's love for the sport lead him to spending all day at the beach and he landed his first job as a surf instructor at a Hawaiian resort.  During his career he's managed to train over 500 people..

 

Caleb started competing at age 14 just and immediately started crushing records.  Caleb's still going strong at 28.
