Carissa Moore

Carissa Moore is the best female surfer in the world. This may just be my opinion but i truly believe that she is the best. She is a progressive surfer and has numerous tricks up her sleeve but still totally fires on the basics. Every move she makes on a surfboard is done with flair, stlye, power and agression. Every move she makes, she has perfected. Many female surfers these days are sticking to a limited number of surfing manoeuvres and i think this is the difference between female and male surfers today. Male surfers have a bigger variety of tricks that they can do.


But this is where Carissa steps in. Carissa is truly leading a charge of female surfers who are doing what they can to keep up with her. She is throwing moves that no one has ever seen performed by a girl before. And this is starting an uprising within female surfing. Though Carissa is not yet on the WCT, she is causing the girls who are to be checking their backs constantly for what she is doing.

I think Carissa is changing the face of womens surfing and i think her humble exterior and sweet, bubbly personality is a great feature to have. She shows that surfing is all about having fun, she just happens to be really, really good at it. Its a brilliant contrast of her agressive surfing and her delicate demeanour. I cant wait to see the many more tricks that she is going to pull out and the change she brings to the surfing industry. When she enters onto the WCT i think the way we know womens surfing will change......not that she would like to admit it.

Here she is boosting an air before she hit double digits...what will the future hold for this bright, young talent?
