Malakai Hagley
Professional Surfer / Surf Coach
I'm an 19-year-old professional surfer, currently competing on the international stage representing England. Surfing has been my life from a young age, and I’m proud to be supported by some incredible sponsors who believe in my journey. My long-term goals are to qualify for the Olympics, make the World Tour, and push myself in big, heavy waves . Thanks to the support of my sponsors, I’m able to travel across Europe and compete on the WSL Junior Tour — gaining valuable experience and developing my competitive edge.
Outside of competing, I offer 1-to-1 surf coaching, which allows me to share my passion, stay connected to the community, and support my career. Coaching isn’t just a side gig — it’s something I genuinely love, and it keeps me grounded while helping others improve their surfing. I'm also studying part-time for a Level 3 Sport Diploma to expand my knowledge and grow both as an athlete and a coach.
In my free time, I stay focused on progression — both in the water and online. I’m constantly working to elevate my performance, promote the brands that back me, and build value through social media by sharing my journey, sessions, and behind-the-scenes life as a young pro surfer and surf coach.
