On Sunday, June 15, the Avengers star, 41, showed off some footage from his 10-year-old son Sasha's first-ever surfboard riding competition, the Byron Bay Boardriders Juniors event in Australia.
According to the actor, the New South Wales-based surf competition didn't just mark his son's first time competing — it was also his first-ever win.
"So happy for my boy winning his first board riders comp," Hemsworth wrote on Instagram, alongside a video of Sasha and his friends screaming with excitement as he dragged his board back onto the beach.
Another photo in the post showed Hemsworth, his son, and his wife Elsa Pataky, 48, posing for a picture on the rainy beach as Sasha held his board under his arm.
"Big thanks to @byronbayboardriders 🤙🤙," he added, shouting out the youth-friendly event.
Hemsworth is known as an extremely proud dad, often showing off his three kids' accomplishments and footage from their family bonding activities on social media.
In April, the actor shared a series of photos from his son Tristan's (Sasha's twin brother) dirt bike race on Instagram, praising the 10-year-old for competing in his first-ever competition.
In one sweet photo, Hemsworth could be seen hugging his son, who wore a red and yellow helmet and a red jersey with "Triz" written on the back. Other videos showed the start of the race, as well as a clip of Hemsworth embracing Tristan after the race, sweeping him off the ground.
"Stoked for my boy competing in his first ever race finishing 3rd in his class, proud moment ❤️," Hemsworth wrote in his caption.
Back in February, Hemsworth also shared a recap from a recent family ski trip with all three kids, also including daughter India Rose, 13, on his Instagram. His video showed a few family photos before showcasing clips of his children doing impressive flips and jumps down the mountain, with the ease of professionals.
Amid the videos, the Transformers One star inserted a photo of him and his wife Pataky posing together, with Hemsworth wearing a camouflage ski suit and Pataky adorning a multi-colored one.
"Another ski trip where the kids continue to make me feel like I don't belong on the mountain 😂," Hemsworth joked in the caption of the clip.

Hemsworth and Pataky tied the knot in 2010, later welcoming India in 2012, and their twin boys in 2014. While Hemsworth and Pataky are in the spotlight for their respective careers, they have been candid about wanting to give their kids a fairly normal upbringing.
In addition to sports, Hemsworth has also given his kids a feel for the entertainment industry. Two of his kids shared the screen with him in 2022's Thor: Love & Thunder, and in May 2024, the twins joined Hemsworth and Pataky at the Australian premiere of their dad's movie Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.
Later that same month, the entire family supported Hemsworth at his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony; however, his daughter India opted out of photos.
"My kids are endlessly inspiring for so many reasons," the dad of three said during his acceptance speech. "Their ability to live in the moment and to dive into life head first and to have fun and be joyous and playful is a constant reminder that that's what life's about. I love you guys."
