<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I've given my old 'Surfboard Art Time-lapse' short film a little revamp to make it worthy of entering the prestigious London Surf Film Festival 2014. Now called, 'A board Without Art is Just "Eh", the short film has been longlisted and it needs your help to get through to the next round! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This is the mantra of a traveller. Attachment to the comfort of the familiar is something that must be forgotten for those of us who choose to live a nomadic lifestyle. We are the biggest gamblers of them all. Dropping everything for the hope that something bigger and better is on the other side of the sea. But the funny thing is, we always win the bet. No matter where we go, what we do or who we meet, it makes us richer. It enriches our life in ways that money cannot buy. Deepening our knowledge, opening our mind and expanding our horizons. So I urge you to look forward and set sail, with courage fuelled by curiosity and the knowledge that you can never fail.</span></div>

However, it brings a whole new level of excitement when your own article sits amongst the inspiring words of female surf aficionados from around the world.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">My time in Byron has sadly come to an
end. Never in my life did I expect to
find myself so at home amongst the fire twirlers, tie-dye and dreadlocks. This
place has spun, tied and woven me into a new and better version of myself. Or
perhaps it has just given me the setting to allow what was inside to finally
come out and prosper. Being surrounded by such open-minded people gives you the
space to readdress your views on the world and actually put your revelations
into practice, not only without judgment, but with encouragement. I’ve made the
difficult transition from being vegetarian to vegan. I’m actively exploring
spirituality, reading Vedic literatures, meditating and doing yoga. I’ve given
myself the freedom to be creative, experimenting with music, film, art, photography
and writing. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Yes, Byron has been the catalyst for this
development, but my underlying passion is the driving force behind all of this.
When seeking a fulfilling life, I think the biggest tragedy is to deny yourself
of who you truly are. Travelling across
the world to hippie-central is one way to prevent this, but it ‘s not the only
way. Confidence is key. More specifically, having the confidence to be bad at
something is so valuable and admirable. It is a barrier that must be demolished
for any hope of progression or success. This is much easier said than done. It
requires a lot more mental strength and conviction than many can muster, which
only makes any morsel of success even more of an accomplishment. Whatever it is
that you love, be it surfing or knitting, have the confidence to break the
mould and make it a reality, no matter who you are or where you’re from. It
will only inspire.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I will take this teaching into my next
phase of life, ensuring any doubts I have in myself won’t hinder my chances of
success in new avenues I wish to explore or in old avenues I wish to evolve
from. All signs in my life have been
pointing to Bali, a world of perfect waves, rule-free roads, and temples
galore. I am so sad to be saying goodbye to so many wonderful people in Byron,
but if Byron has taught me one thing, it’s learning to let go. In such a
transient tourist town, where people come and go like the tide, you learn to
appreciate those around you for who they are in that moment, truly living in the
present. Saying goodbye was something that once filled me with sorrow, but now
I can see it as an opportunity to fill my life with new, fascinating people and
experiences to enrich my life in ways I never imagined. This is something I so
look forward to in Bali, as well as giving myself the opportunity to practice surfing,
yoga, writing, and filmmaking in a new setting to consolidate these passions in
my character. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here's a few last snaps of surfing in Byron with some awesome friends and family. Happy memories. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This time last year, a monster wave ate my board at Tallows Beach, Byron Bay, and spat it out in two. A milestone passed, my first snapped board. Since then it has served many purposes, including foam fillers to friends' dings, last-minute Halloween costumes (don't worry, it's lipstick not real blood), and more recently, a hat stand. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Surely this deteriorating wedge of foam and fibreglass must be reaching the end of its life by now, I hear you say. Well, forever the advocate of recycling and reusing, I've managed to breath another phase of life through my decaying hat stand with the help of some Posca pens and a bit of creativity. Here's my latest board art, paying respect to our toothy friends. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">It’s tough transitioning from a beginner to
an intermediate surfer. It takes guts and a hell of a lot of determination to
get back on your board and paddle out after eating sand for the one-hundredth
time that session, while everyone else in the line-up seems to be effortlessly
tucking into barrels and pulling off 360 airs. As if it isn’t hard enough being
the only girl in a sea of testosterone; not only do we have to overcome the
battle against other surfers and the challenge of the backbreaking dumping
wave, but we also have to conquer the hardest force of all, our own mind. One
negative thought is enough to throw you over the lip, instead of dropping into
your best wave yet. The ocean is the single most dynamic and changeable sports
field in the world, where no two waves are the same, so it is no wonder that it
takes years to master the basics of the sport.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The point I’m making is that surfing is
hard! But us surfer girls are natural born thrill seekers and we’ll do anything
to re-live that head high drop we seemed to pull off last week on a fluke, even
if it takes one hundred more humiliating body slams to get there. Over the past
year or two I’ve come to realize a few tips which have helped to make my surfing
a little more smooth and consistent. Some of them may seem pretty basic, but I have
found that people tend to forget the basics when they feel like they’re ready
to move on to other maneuvers. The pros say it’s vitally important to form a
strong foundation before you build from that. Here’s the top 10 things I’m
concentrating on when I’m in the water. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b><span lang="EN-US">1. Powerful
Paddling</span></b><span lang="EN-US"> – The experts say we paddle for about
70-80% of our surf session, so it’s needless to stress how important it is to
have a decent stroke. My years of elite swimming training have taught me that a
long, deep stroke is the most efficient form, as opposed to short and fast as I
see all too often with people learning to surf. It’s easy to forget this in the
midst of a panic paddle for a wave, but make it a conscious act next time
you’re out. See for yourself how much easier the paddle out feels and how much
easier it is to get on to the wave when you have a long and powerful stroke. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b><span lang="EN-US">2.
Deeper Duckdives</span></b><span lang="EN-US"> – Duckdiving requires a lot of
upper body strength, something which doesn’t come naturally to most girls. It’s
especially difficult if you’re still riding a buoyant beast of a board as a
learner (in which case, shifting all your weight forward and using your knee to
help sink the board really helps). I recently became aware of how important it
is to perform a good quality duckdive, when I was in the midst of a hellish
paddle out and I was pushed 2m behind my friend with ever wave we duckdived. I
started to focus on pushing down harder with my arms to go deeper, then
directing the movement of the board forward to oppose the force of the wave,
rather than just lazily floating up when the wave had passed. Once you have reached the surface, start paddling immediately! No time for dilly-dallying, as your mother would say. I
found that putting more energy into your duckdives, actually helps to conserve
your energy by making the paddle out quicker.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b><span lang="EN-US">3. Positioning</span></b><span lang="EN-US"> – The ability to read the waves comes
with experience in the water. At the intermediate level, you should be able to
identify where the peak of the wave will be and so position yourself just behind
it to get ready for a set. However, it’s not as simple as that for many of us
because fear gets in the way. Often we force ourselves away from the peak and
sit a few meters across, on the shoulder of the wave where it will be smaller
and you won’t have to compete with all the experienced surfers. Seems like a
great idea, right? Wrong! It’s actually harder to catch a wave on the shoulder
than it is on the peak because it tends to jack up and become steeper in that
section, which makes the takeoff extra challenging. However, on the peak it tends to be less
steep and more forgiving for the takeoff. So, even though it’s bigger on the
peak, it’s actually easier, not to mention heaps more fun. So next time you’re
out amongst the competition, be confident and sit on the peak. You have just as
much right to be there as anyone else does. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b><span lang="EN-US">4.
Pause</span></b><span lang="EN-US"> – One fateful evening, I was given the best
piece of advice and after that everything just <i>clicked</i>. My friend and I were hitchhiking back home from the Quicksilver
Pro surf competition in the Gold Coast, true Byron style, and a surf instructor
so happened to pick us up. As we drove home, I was complaining how my popup
wasn’t fast enough so I kept getting on the wave too late, or not getting it at
all. We went for a quick sunset surf in Byron and he had one look at my popup
and said “you’re getting up too fast, slow it all down. Paddle, pause for a
second or two to look at the wave and feel it, then pop up when you feel like
the wave has caught you.” My takeoff transformed from frantic desperation, to
smooth and controlled. I learned that you have a lot more time than you
realize. Next time you’re paddling on to a wave remember to paddle hard, then take
a second to breath before you pop to your feet, it makes all the
difference. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b>5.</b> <b>No Knee Pop Up</b> – I don’t know a single
female surfer that hasn’t struggled to shake off the <i>step up</i>, instead of <i>pop up</i>,
bad habit when moving from a minimal to a shortboard. On a shortboard, your
toes are dangling off the end of your board, there’s nowhere for your legs to
help you propel up to standing, so we slide up to our knee and step up from
there. This becomes a two-step motion, where the knee shifts all your weight
back and you lose a lot of speed before you’ve even stood up, causing the wave
to race away from you leaving your positioning on the wave all wrong.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Many intermediate surfers don’t even
realize they’re using their knee to get up. It wasn’t until my friend and I
filmed each other and watched it back in slow motion that we both realized we
were still using our knees. Since then I’ve been doing some land training to
increase my upper body and core strength every morning to make my popups more <i>explosive</i>. Every time I go to popup, I
now focus my attention on my back foot to make sure it goes straight to
standing and I know the front foot will take care of itself. Once you’ve
mastered the popup, you will see a dramatic improvement in the rest of your
surfing because the take off will either set you up for a fail or an ace wave.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b><span lang="EN-US">6.</span></b><span lang="EN-US"> <b>Angle Your Board</b> – When
you start to ride bigger, steeper waves it‘s very important to angle your
board diagonally across the wave on the take off. Some waves may look like a vertical decent
into certain death when you’re angled straight down the face, but if you change
your angle by about 45degrees to face <i>down the line</i> then waves that seemed
totally un-ridable become super fun, fast rides. To do this you’ll need to
paddle harder than you would normally as the force of the wave won’t help you
as much and dig your inside rail into the wave. Also, it’s vitally important, DON’T LOOK DOWN!!! The rule of surfing is, <i>where
you look is where you will go</i>. So if
you look down the wave on the takeoff, then, not only will you freak yourself
out by how high and steep it is, but you’ll also go that way and it probably
won’t be pretty. Instead, set your sights around 5m across the wave and look where
you want to go, because that way, you’ll get there.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span lang="EN-US"><b>7. Loosen Up </b>– </span><span lang="EN-US">Great style
is something all surfers hope to achieve, whether they’ll admit it or not. I’m
not talking about who’s wearing the trendiest wetsuit or who’s got the most
stickers on their car. Style in surfing is all about how gracefully you ride
the wave. Some people can make riding a 10ft barrel look like they’re
performing a waltz with Mother Nature.
Others can hypnotize you with they’re effortless sways and sprays on a
2ft baby wave. Next time you’re on a wave, remember to relax and loosen up
because it’s all too easy to tense up when you feel like the wave is doing
everything in its power to throw you off. Feel the motion of the wave and let
your body intuitively respond as if you were part of the ocean itself. Change
your state of mind, stop thinking and just <i>go
with the flow.</i> <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">If you’re
struggling with feeling natural on a surfboard, I strongly advise you to buy a
longboard skateboard. It has helped my surfing heaps. Go out for a midnight
skate when there’s no cars about and dominate the concrete swell. It not only
helps to build your style, give you better balance and more power in your
turns, but it builds your confidence too. When you’re bombing down a hill and
on the verge of speed wobbles, the prospect of a broken collar bone and bare
skin on a concrete cheese grater is enough to keep you on your board and defy
the inevitable. This feeling of <i>“I can’t
fall off”</i> transfers over to your surfing and you’ll find that you’ll manage
to stay on your board in situations you had previously thought impossible. It’s all
in the mind.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b><span lang="EN-US">8. Mind Over Matter </span></b><span lang="EN-US">– It’s
so easy to get bogged down with negative emotions and to beat yourself up
during a session when things aren’t going your way. Someone in the line up
might be an aggressive surfer and always drop in on you, or you may not be
performing as well as usual. Whatever the reason, those negative thoughts are
only going to have a negative impact on your surfing. I can't tell you the
amount of times I could have caught a wave, but failed because I didn’t have
faith in myself or my board. I firmly believe that a huge proportion of surfing
ability comes from mind control. On another fateful sunset surf, I sought
advice from a wise old surfer who told me to <i>“Stop thinking! All good surfers are airheads.”</i> Genius! As well as
the Zen approach, I also find positive affirmations really effective. Change
all your <i>I can’t</i><i>‘s</i> into <i>I can</i><i>‘s</i> and all your negatives into
positives. You’ll be so much happier for it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span lang="EN-US"><b>9. Say Hi </b>–</span><span lang="EN-US"> A friendly
smile and a <i>hello </i>can go a long way.
Call me a weirdo, but I can’t help but find it awkward when you’re sharing the
waves with a stranger in a vast empty ocean and neither of you even
acknowledges each other’s existence. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to
exchange life stories or anything, I enjoy the peace and tranquility of the sea
as much as the next person. But a passing comment from a happy fellow surfer
definitely changes the vibe for the better and instills a feeling of unison
amongst everyone in the water. It’s all about having fun and as they say, <i>happiness is only real when shared</i>.
You’ve got the power to be that happy surfer who changes the vibe, so do it!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b><span lang="EN-US">10.
Power </span></b><span lang="EN-US">– Ultimately, most of surfing performance is based
on power. It’s vital in every aspect of surfing, from duckdiving and paddling,
to popups and turning. You won’t realize how vital it is until you do a bit of
land training and see the difference for yourself. Incorporate some sit-ups, press-ups, the
plank, squats and popups into your daily morning routine and you’ll see a
massive improvement in your surfing after just a couple of weeks. This extra
power will be the driving force to propel your surfing onto a whole new level. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">These are the top ten things I concentrate
on when I’m in the water, but the one thing I never forget is that, when it comes down to it, it's all about having fun. Feel free to leave a comment and share any
gems of advice you’ve been given about surfing throughout your experience. Share
the wisdom and spread the stoke. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I was super stoked when my favourite magazine <i>SurfGirl</i> featured my video and blog on their website. I'll be making an appearance in the UK summer edition of the magazine too, so keep your eyes peeled... This was a distant and somewhat unbelievable dream when I began surfing and also when I started my blog. It just shows you that being proactive in an area you're passionate about can result in things you never thought possible. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Surfing is truly something best shared. The
ocean never feels as vast and daunting when you have a friend or two to paddle
out with. The drop of a steep close out would never be manageable without the
distant “yeeeew!!” from your mates crossing their fingers in the line up. The
stoke is never as empowering as it is when witnessed by a friend who acts as living proof of your near-barrel.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">However, it can be hard to find other
female surfers who share the same undying need to surf and who are brave enough
to attempt waves that would make any sane person whimper with fear. So, as a
girl surfer, you often find yourself surrounded by guys for the vast majority
of your day (and I’m certainly not complaining). But if you’re lucky, you’ll find that one
girl surfer who's lifestyle and values seem to reflect everything that
identifies you. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Aida is that surfer for me. She has a
passion for the ocean and creativity. She’s a health and fitness guru with the
most inspirational outlook on life. She’s so grounded and surfs simply for the
love of it with not a hint of pretention. Life is simple. All we talk about is surfing and all we do is surf. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This was my first ever short film. I shot it last winter at our regular break Sunrise Beach, Byron Bay, during sunset. All shot on GoPro Hero 3. It was more of an experimentation session. I've now learned to increase the frames per second if I want to play scenes in slow motion and I also need to lick the lens to prevent water droplets from disrupting shots, mmmmmmmm.... </span></div>

from Byron Bay to Port Douglas in a camper van - such hippies - and have the
trip of a lifetime. Here's all those moments I pressed 'record'.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It's the reason I go to bed before it's fully dark</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">and wake up before dawn.</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It's why the prevailing winds are my preferred topic of conversation </span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">and a wetsuit my most consistent fashion statement.</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It's the one thing I have that I don't actually own</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">because it owns me.</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It's the next wave and it's mine.</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Before I moved to Australia, my crazy Bulgarian friend gave me a an envelope and told me to open it in the plane. Somewhere above the Indian ocean, I tore open the envelope to find a selection of quotes to inspire me on my journey. What a girl she is. This was my favourite one. It displayed a mindset that I so admired and hoped that I'd one day achieve. Now, it's my life. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">You may recognise this poster from the latest Surfer Girl magazine. I ripped it out, a little too hastily as you can see, and tipp-exed on the quote. Now these words grace my wall every day and remind me of the journey on which I've come.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Far too many people on this planet are
guilty of not achieving what they truly want out of life. Be it because of fear
of failure and the unknown, or because they have preconceived expectations of
how life should be and, so, fail to live in a way that truly makes them happy.
Honestly, who would chose to spend their days bolted to a swivel chair and
locked behind a desk? They may think they’re living the high life, on the top
floor of a corporate tower, basking in the warm, comforting glow of their computer
screens. Little do they know that they won’t get a tan from the sunset on their
screensaver, it’s only going to make them whiter.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">There’s a precious breed of people around
the world who have taken a chainsaw to the bars of this all too common confinement
and have released themselves into a life of endless joy, sunshine and…. surf!
I’m not talking about those who spend more time taking photos of each with
their 9ft foamies and bolt to dry land at the slight trickle of water up their
nose, although hats off to them for trying. I’m talking about those of us who, after
stumbling up to our feet for the first time on a wave, were drawn back to the
ocean as if an invisible force took hold of us, like the gravitational pull of
the moon. And so began the inevitable ebb and flow of our very self, and a surfer was born.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">There’s a sense of calm and oneness with
nature that only a surfer can know. The moment you step into the water, nothing
else exists but the present moment and the challenge that faces you. The paddle
out is a daunting battle against moving mountains and avalanches of water but
the only thing giving you the will to charge through the impossible is the
knowledge that you’ll soon be effortlessly gliding across their glassy faces. There
aren’t many experiences in life that dramatically hurl you from a sense of fear
and desperation (the paddle out), to a peaceful tranquility (out back), to the biggest feeling of elation life can give you, the stoke. This
disparity of emotions is what makes surfing so much more than just a sport, it’s
a character-building practice with the power to truly shape a person. It’s gloriously
addictive and it becomes, in itself, a lifestyle. It inspires people to travel
to the far reaches of the Earth. It has the power to shape communities, towns
and countries. And for some, it’s no less than a spiritual experience. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Embarrassingly, I first fell in love with
surfing at the age of 12 after watching a film, which is now seemingly most
surfer girls’ guilty pleasure, Blue Crush. However, the landlocked city of my rainy
hometown, Glasgow in Scotland, was a far cry from the Hawaiian dream of
sunshine and Pipeline. Nonetheless, I took to the flat waters that were
available to me in local rivers and lochs and began Open Water Swimming. After years
of intense training I became junior Scottish Champion and competed for Scotland
around Europe. It was an incredible experience (and I’m grateful to have the
swimmers shoulders today) but it didn’t quite satisfy my urge to surf. After
much pleading, my ever supportive mum took us on a family
holiday to Cornwall, Newquay, where we surfed for the first time. And so it
began. Every holiday from then on had to include surfing. I got my first surfboard
for my 14<sup>th</sup> birthday - a custom made 7’6” minimal from Cornwall,
decorated with blue flowers, of course. It was, like me, a Hawaiian Soul but,
like me, spent most of its time gathering dust in my bedroom. Surfing is a
tough sport to maintain when you live a 3 hour drive from the beach - especially
when you can’t drive. As a result, surfing took a back seat in my life, waiting
to pop its eager little head out when the time was right, when I could take the drivers seat.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I went on to study Zoology and Marine Biology
at the University of Glasgow and luckily for me, they had a surf club.
Together, the team braved the harsh Scottish elements, armored in a chainmail
of 5mm thick neoprene from head to toe and a fighting spirit that even William
Wallace would be proud of. While we only got the opportunity to surf every few
months, we embraced the concrete waves of the city and longboard skated to our
hearts content. In the midst of library boredom we were prone to booking
spontaneous flights to sunny surf destinations like Morocco, Portugal and
Fuerteventura. However, not to be patriotic or anything, the best surf I had
was definitely on the Western Isles of Scotland, where I also had my first
shark encounter. Yes it still counts if it’s a basking shark and it doesn’t
have teeth…they’re still really big and really scary and could definitely
swallow you by accident! <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Upon graduating from University, I took it
upon myself to make my passion for surfing my lifestyle. I <i>bolted myself to a swivel chair and locked myself to a desk</i> in a
2month online quest to find a job in Australia.
I did it! I landed myself a dream job of Lead Scientist for the Western
Australian Marine Science Institution humpback whale project 2012-13 and wrote
a blog about the once in a lifetime experience <a href="http://humpbackwhaleofatime.wordpress.com/">http://humpbackwhaleofatime.wordpress.com</a>.
I surfed every morning in the shark-infested waters of Perth, ever grateful to
have survived each session, until my humpback whale research project was complete.
I then relocated to the surf-crazed town of Byron Bay in February 2013, aged 22,
and so began my real life version of <i>sunshine
and Pipeline</i>. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It may have taken 10 years, but I have
finally realised my dream of living for the waves and it’s better than I
could ever have imagined, even if I'm still struggling with my pop-up and top turn. My name is Alexis, or Lexi for short, and I bring to
you my account of real life as a surfer girl in the hope to inspire others to
follow and never think that it’s an impossible pursuit, no matter who you are
or where you come from. The ocean
connects us all and the waves are our universal language. So I invite you all,
as sisters of the sea, to throw your fears to the wind and give in to the
allure of the blue. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
