Hometown: Byron Bay.

Born: Jan 1, 1977.

He has widely traveled the surfing circuit and cut his infantile teeth on Hawaii's legendary waves making a career out of paddling into the biggest tubes to be found there. He secured financial backing to support his pursuit of full-time competition at the age of nineteen and has been focused on moving into the top ranks of professional surfing since then.

His sponsors include No Fear, T & C Surfboards, Reef, Dragon, Peak, Surf Aids and The Beach Hotel. Although he has been very close to attaining qualification for the impressive final WCT (World Championship Tour) , he has yet to achieve it.

Undeterred, Kieren promises for 2001 that he'll be trying to "seal it before Hawaii." With a penchant for blue-green tubes and mastery of waves it is highly likely he will. Alongside this competitive career, Kieren also sits on the board of directors for the ASP (Association Of Surfing) contributing to the directions of future professionals.
