Brendan Ryan Peterson.
Hey everyone, I'm Brendan Peterson. I was born and raised on the tropical island of Maui, one of the six islands of Hawaii.
I grew up in the city of Hana Town. It's right off the water, so it was pretty much beautiful there. My mom, Summer Peterson,
and my dad, David Peterson raised both me and my little bro Tyler, who is now 12? Dang, time flies. Anyway, my mom is a stay at home mom. Usually she's outside messing around in the garden; she loves it.
My dad, on the otherhand, is the owner of the most visited surf shop in Hana; Wavejammer Surf Supplies. He's always out on the water, so that's where I got my passion for surfing. I've been surfing since I was about 3 and I never plan to stop. When I was 16, my dad found a surfing tournament, just 20 minutes south of here. He thought it would be a sweet idea if I got into it; maybe become a professional surfer. It took mom a few months to finally let me go, but then it took her another few months to find a school I could go to while I was in the tourney. I mean, come on. I had pretty good grades and kept up with my surfing at the same time, so it didn't seem it would take that long to find a school that would accept me into their system.
My 17th birthday few by and I was still in Maui, not that I really minded, but I thought I would have been in Miami by now. Then, one day, my parents both came up to my room and woke me up. They told me that they had spent the last two months arranging where I was going to go to school and how my schedule was going to work out. They told me I was flying out that night and I was going to go to an academy just a few minutes away from the beach; Bay Pointe Academy. I was pretty stoked. I couldn't believe that they, well, my mom, was acutally going to let me go. I spent the day packing my things; who knew I had so much stuff? Haha. I called my best friend, Bryan, and he came over for a few hours before I left. I flew out that night, a week ago. And now I'm here in Maimi, Florida at Bay Pointe Academy. My new home.
