September 7, 1988 // Merewether, AustraliaForecast: With an aerial prowess backed by a smooth, fluid style, Craig is destined to become a photographer’s and videographer’s dream. His single-wave clip in Stranger Than Fiction was just a teaser for the things to come from this polished young surfer.
Surfer Hot 100 List
Synopsis: Originally hailing from Port Elizabeth, South Africa, this stylish goofyfoot has been making big waves on the Australian surf scene these past few years. Anderson combines obvious traces of Rob Machado’s flow and style with a radical aerial repertoire.
Variables: Despite beating Julian Wilson in the final of the Ozmosis Nova Pro Junior in early 2008, Craig’s competitive résumé doesn’t reflect his freesurfing ability.
