NZ Nationals 07

Kereopa Nails The Hatrick.

Twenty eight year old Daniel Kereopa of Raglan has today (Saturday) won the Open Men’s Division of the Hyundai National Championships and in doing so thrown off the one monkey that he had crawling around his shoulders in New Zealand surfing. Not happy with one title he also won his first open longboard title and senior men’s (Over 28s) title. An emotional Kereopa could say no more than “I’m stoked” when he reached the top of the Arawhata cliffs and had to gather himself before he could go further.
