Allen Sarlo, @allen_sarlo known as the “Wave Killer,” is a legendary surfer whose powerful, aggressive style helped define the early days of Venice Beach’s Dogtown scene. A pioneering figure in both surfing and skateboarding, Sarlo brought raw energy and innovation to waves around the world. His fearless approach, competitive drive, and charismatic personality cemented his status as an icon of the sport. From heavy Hawaiian surf to local California breaks, Sarlo’s legacy continues to inspire generations of surfers who push the boundaries of power surfing today.
