Finn Richardson was born in County Clare, Ireland, but at the age of eight his Dad’s job took the family to Lanzarote where they settled and surfed for the next decade. Earning his surfing stripes in the powerful waves of the Canaries, Finn was soon surfing solid slabs like El Quemo and returned to Ireland just often enough to pick up three Irish Junior titles over the years. The family returned to Ireland in 2021 and Finn’s been searching out and embracing the rawness of the surfing experience and heavy waves that he enjoyed so much in Lanzarote, just with a thicker wetsuit on.
