The days of women waiting on the beach to serve Chiko Rolls to surfer boyfriends when they emerge from the ocean are well and truly over. Women are taking on those waves themselves and, particularly, in more mature years.
The ocean beckoned. She went on a women’s surf weekend trip with Chix Surf School. “I wouldn’t have surfed if not for them because they are so supportive while also challenging each other,” she says. Rip Curl women’s general manager Brooke Farris says the growth in the women’s area over the past three to five years has been outstanding, especially as wetsuit insulation technology has improved.
“I love the ocean but never thought surfing was for me because I get terribly cold in the water but I went to the East Coast Surf School and they gave me a wetsuit, booties and a helmet so I wasn’t cold and immediately felt a real connection to the water.
