13-Year-Old Surfing Prodigy Noah Beschen Is Mowgli From ‘Jungle Book’ Come To Life

Noah Beschen was destined to own. His old man is surfing legend Shane Beschen and the grew up on a board off the North Shore of Oahu. I’m sure his family had an idea that Noah Beschen would be an amazing surfer but no one could have predicted just how talented the 13-year-old would become at the intense and dangerous sport.

Noah Beschen started turning heads with his surf prowess at the age of 9, and a couple years later, Lieber Films came calling with an interest in making him the focus of a short film. The shot footage is part Jungle Book, part Riding Giants, and just plain breathtaking to watch.

The video won the 2015 REDirect Surf Film Festival Grand Prize and it will become obvious why after watching these amazing six minutes of Noah Beschen owning the surf.
