Ladies Day

Dear & Yonder is cool surf movie featuring heaps of great female surfers. Well worth a look even for  a bloke I reckon. Check it here.

Dance

"Just let me do my dance. Don't put me in a box and tell me how and what I have to do. Let the artist paint the picture, be it classic or progressive."

Bill Stewart in Surfer (August 2005)

Point Style

Gromette

Could be a Layne Beachley or Steph Gilmore of the future.

Friends

Nice to spend a quiet surf with a friend. Katherine and Cindy sharing a few slides at Terrigal.

They Wanna

"Girls just wanna have fun" Sung Cyndi Lauper way back in the 80's when by all accounts women surfers were a real minority in the surf. Less so all the time though, which is great to see. 

"The booming surf school industry introduces another 250,000 newcomers (and rising) to the waves each year, more than half of them female."

Tim Baker in High Surf (2007)

Swooping

Katherine swooping down the line in the early morn.

At home

Similar to watching first-timers, it's a pleasure to see someone steadily progressing in their surfing. This is my wife Katherine. She began her surfing journey on our honeymoon of all places! She's as hooked as me now. Avoca Beach at a quieter time of year.
