‘Wave Pool King’ Stomps NBD Superman 360 Shuv-It at Waco Surf (Video)
Jacob “Zeke” Szekely is many things, but humble is not one of them.
The San Diego native is one of surfing’s biggest characters, making a name for himself early on by winning a competition while wearing a court-ordered ankle bracelet, turning his life around, and becoming one of the most prolific surf vloggers in the game.
And what he lacks in humility, he makes up for in hard work. Like pushing the limits in terms of sticking new tricks, particularly in surf parks, and dubbing himself “the king of wave pools.” And Zeke has a new one for his extensive bag of never-before-done tricks, a superman air into a 360 shuv-it, landed at Waco Surf deep in the heart of Texas.
“I’M THE KING OF THIS SHIT,” Zeke boastfully captioned. “Quit Playyin w/ Me! Nobody has Landed as many New Tricks as Me!! & I’ve been Dreaming of Landing a 360 Shuv it for like 8 years now. SuperMan 360 Shuv. Huge Thx to @wacosurf_tx for having us & shout out to my homies for Hyping me up the last two days to stomp it.”
Impressive.
And the congrats on the new trick rolled in, along with a note or two on his audacity.
“My goat!!!!” – Eithan Osborne
“I remember going to waco with you in 2019 and you were already way ahead of the game. Still got the thrown all these years later.” – Ridge Lenny
“Let’s goo Zeke! Keep doing you brother!” – Josh Kerr
“That was sickkk.” – Albee Layer
“Bro! When your skill level catches up to your humility you’re going to be unstoppable!!! OTC BABY!!!” – Luke Cederman
Previously, during a stint in Indonesia, Zeke landed another NBD – a superman fingerflip – and he shared it with the world accompanied by his trademark bravado:
“Don’t forget I started that finger flipping shit in 2020. So if you don’t like it, YOU CAN SUCK IT!”
Classic Zeke. Never change.
