I was lucky enough to get a spot in the Women’s Waimea Championships. I am not sure why as most of the names on the list are defiently a league above me when it comes to big wave riding. You got to start somewhere though. I hope this is the second wind of my surfing career, lighting a fire inside to work from the ground on up. Unfortunately the event didn’t run this year due to the lack of swell which I am rather glad about as I don’t think I was ready by any means. Hopefully some training with Hanli (my freediving ocean loving friend) and Tash from Absolute Pilates will pay off. Lets see where this adventure takes me….
