31st of May 1995 was well celebrated in the coastal town of Byron Bay, with the arrival of Solamon Storm Bailey (Soli to his friends).

More celebrations were soon to follow as Soli continued his charge, riding his first waves at his local Point, The Pass, a mere 2.5 years later.

Fast forward to 2010 and Soli is a 15 year old frothing grom who has been charging since that first wave his dad pushed him into. Soli’s surfing talent saw him score a sponsorship from Quiksilver at the age of 10.

Soli has a string of impressive contest results to his name, adding to this, a list of international surfing destinations that most surfers twice his age would be envious of such as, Hawaii, France, West Oz and Indonesia.

You can start seeing that this young lad is quickly filling his bag full of experiences that money can’t buy.  Combine all the above with hours of honing his skills on classic Aussie beachies and point breaks, you will appreciate why Soli is fast rising the ranks of junior surfing.

Whether he is chilling at home listening to music, fishing, or charging through a big Indo barrel, you will always find a smile on the face of this earthy & humble kid from Byron.

As Soli continues to shape his surfing on the likes of Slater, Jordy Smith & local hero Danny Wills, we invite you to enjoy the ride as Soli charges into the future leaving no stone unturned, on his journey to become…stay tuned!!
