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)

School Zone



Ready for action in the surf school. The best way to really understand something is to teach it. Teach someone how to surf - you'll be stoked and learn heaps. Incidentally "real" school is back - the streets are busier but the lineups quieter.
