The Hunger Games star showed good form as he rode on his board with bent knees and an arm stroking a wave for balance.

Liam was born in Melbourne, Australia but his family relocated to Phillip Island when he was age eight and he spent much of his time surfing with his older actor brothers Chris and Luke.

He was spotted with on-again girlfriend Miley Cyrus, 23, on Wednesday at the Japanese restaurant Nobu in Malibu.

They were joined by Liam's family including his mum Leonie, father Craig and brother Luke along with his wife Samantha.
