“Bash” Mendes makes his mark
By: Denise Arledge
Sebastian Mendes, Agoura Hills surf star, is only 8 years old. But that hasn’t stopped the 60 pound surf rat from attaining a slue of famed sponsors like DVS, ValSurf, Matix and Body Glove. I’ve been watching this young star rip since he was 5 years old as I am close friends with the Mendes family. His father Anthony is the owner of Winner’s New York Pizza in Agoura Hills, one of Sebastian’s favorite restaurants.
Sebastian and the family visit the North Shore many times per year to expose Sebastian to some of the best waves in the world. He has spent time around Kelly Slater and other numerous surf legends. Sebastian is currently leading the under-9 championship for the Western Surfing Association. He leads by 2,752 points, a nearly insurmountable lead. I wish Sebastian luck in the years to come. He will undoubtedly be a successful surfer.
