A fun-loving father and his adorable baby daughter have become surfing sensations in Hawaii for their impressive tandem skills.

Nine-month-old nipper Hadassah Sage Lima caught her first wave with her dad Sergio, 29, when she was four months old. Now the pair are out tearing up the waves every day on the north shore of Oahu.

Their daring stunts include Sergio surfing with a delighted Hadassah carefully balanced on his outstretched hand.

With mum Carly, 29, surfing until she was 38 weeks pregnant, Hadassah fell in love with the water sport when she was still in the womb.

Even when I was pregnant Hadassah loved it. It was the only time she actually was still and at peace in the belly.

Now that the tiny tot is more confident in the water, Sergio has been able to practice some impressive balancing stunts with her and the father-daughter act has become a local sensation.

Sergio Lima, 29, a former pro who learnt to surf aged two, started a surf school in 2011 named Island Style Surf School.

What I love most is seeing her happiness as we take off on a wave together. She flaps her arms and squeals with joy and it just makes my heart want to burst.

For her doting parents, ensuring Hadassah is safe is paramount.
