Pro Interviews

If you've not had a look yet, take a peek at our exclusive interviews with only two of the hottest surfer girls on the planet – World Champ Stephanie Gilmore (video coming soon…) and World Junior Champ (and Rip Curl Pro Search wildcard), French girl Pauline Ado.

SurfGirl has been on holiday! But is now back with a vengeance – we're working hard to make our first winter issue a snow and surf extravaganza, and we're making the most of these wonderful autumn swells, as hopefully you are too. Watch out for new SurfGirl vest tops too!

ASL have a pretty cool interview with Steph Gilmore on a trip to Lakey Peak, Sumbawa, with a crew of surfer boys. 'Stephs’ thoughts on the women’s tour, being a celebrity, and much, much more.'

Fistral this morning, looking good.

There's no girls' competition this year, but with clean four foot waves today and four of our GB boys still in the running, it's a good event. You can see live action on mpora.com.

If you're going to the beach, say hello at the Carve stall, and if you're going to Unleashed fest, check out the Carve chillout tent…might be invaluable with the rain forecast on Saturday!

Roxy Jam on TV

Girls surfing on TV! SG Editor Louise Searle went along to the Roxy Jam and this should be a good programme. Watch out for our writeup in the next issue of SurfGirl, out at the start of August.
