Let's hear it for the GIRLS!
Kai Lenny can do no wrong and this is one thing VALs and grumpy locals can both agree on. The brave Maui local, whom Derek Rielly describes as “a daring twenty-seven-year-old multi-discipline surfer with sea-spray eyes shaped like pecans, skin the colour of buttered cocoa and lips as red as if he’d just applied a fresh coat of pomegranate lipstick” has, this week, helped drive Facebook stock to a five-year low and, yesterday, conducted the second most exciting gender reveal of all time at his home break Jaws.
Lenny, wearing iconic Hurley springer, was towed into a large wave holding a pyrotechnic device that, when activated, released a spray of red smoke indicating that he would soon be a father of a two daughters, having just announced days ago that twins were on the way.
“I’M GONNA BE A GIRL DAD!!” he captioned the post, tagging his partner Molly Payne.
Brilliant, inspirational, many congratulations and only bested by the couple who had a boy and almost burned the entire state of California to the ground.
A who’s who of surf glitterati, featuring Anastasia Ashley, Nathan Florence, Mark Healey, Brett Simpson, Lucas Chumbo etc. weighed in with many hearts and well-wishes.
All very well deserved and much love to the Lenny family.
As a father of two daughters, though not twins, I can say they are by far the best. Better than absolutely anything including, but not limited to, Mark Zuckerberg’s Metaverse.

There you go ! I was always under the impression Kai batted for the other team? (Not that there is anything wrong with that) , and my gaydar isn’t wrong often
I guess Elton John and Freddie Mercury got married too at some stage
Maybe the pink flare goes both ways
I prefer chromosome reveal parties. This way said child can feel free keep, remove, or sew on tackle at their discretion.
Yup, well deserved and much loved.
But, still , wtf. Don’t give a f
Some next level Inertia shit here.
As a father of three daughters, including one set of identical twins I can say they are by far the best. Better than absolutely anything except perhaps their mother. Nicely stated Chas.
Gender reveals is narcissism at its best/worst. Seriously, outside your closest circle of mates and your family, who the fuck cares if you’re having a boy or a girl? Even then, you go have the scans, you find out the gender, then over a beer up the pub in the arvo you say to your mates “yeah, having a girl mate. Whose shout?” Job done.
Fucking pink fucking balloons and blue fucking this and pink fucking that, all so you can tell a million cunts on social media you don’t even know, and you’d likely turn your nose up at if they dared try chat with you on the street? Pretentious. Narcissistic. Dip. Shit.
But what do you really think?
It’s early here. I’m always polite when it’s early.
when the pub convo moved to social media gen reveals my soul died. People are so soft and fake these days
My soul is being rekindled as we speak. I’ve fucked off pretty much all social media for the last few moths. Fucking glorious!
Fucken gender reveals.. Surely this is a sign we have too much of everything and waaay too much time on our self obsessed hands. Lame.
Oi Chasdzy

This ridiculous pink flare whilst surfing prank is a good example of prime wrong wankerness.
It is wrong, he is doing WRONG, but you and your VALs can’t see that, so there is no agreement that he can do no wrong.
Who fuckin’ cares what his kids are gonna be, or even if his bird is gonna spit out any kids at all, apart from family and a few close friends.
It’s true that he can ride huge waves and do tricks on a foil etc etc, and hey, he might even be a decent bloke, but apart from that he does all sorts of wrong shit that he should be castigated for, like this pathetic display of oestrogen, and hanging out with Zuck…
His kids will grow up to be tow in wind foil surfers…or cowpeople!
Congrats Kai your life is nor over. Oh you wanna go surfing every day? Nah sorry maybe once a week if your super organized and wife is accommodating but more like once a month
You kidding? Red Bull and Hurluley will stump up the dosh for a couple Central American nannies…
No wife, he’s not married.
Drek’s eyes still shine with that glimmer of hope
Next level waterman, next level idiot.
Whats with all big wave surfers being kook adjacent?
It’s the accessibility of big waves. If you have the desire to get out there, you can do it with out being constrained by the multitudes of surfers with more (rip)-ability in smaller waves. That and the lack of brains.
“I’m gonna be a girl, Dad !”
Tftfy.
That was the first thing that crossed my mind, when I saw the article heading. Kai charges, but seems kinda fem.
Hetrosexual family forming is top shelf.
Is his partner female?
These days it’s a fair question.
You just gonna assume Kai’s gender like that you Neanderthal
Whoops.
Sorry, the super bandy thing can’t do everything … you have to wait for the metaverse
Ha! Indeed.
Having daughter first was better however she turning 15 soon – better i dont know??
Twin boys at 13 are little pricks currently
The one thing i do know is your prison workout fucks you up – 53 mins it took yesterday!! thought with my daughter that age best time to start
Prison workout has totally destroyed me!
prepping myself if thrown in jail or ”special quarantine”!
Power Bottom?
Water on the knees.
I’m having a personality reveal party this weekend everybody is invited
I’m personality neutral
Brave. I’m personality fluid
What colour do pink and blue create?…is it purple?…should we all wear purple?
