Steph Gilmore Wins Rip Curl, Heads to Billabong
Sep 4th, 2008 by mhueter
Steph Gilmore took first place at the Rip Curl Mademoiselle in France last week and is headed with momentum toward the Billabong Girls Pro Rio - event No 4 of 8 on the 2008 ASP Women’s World Tour.
Surfing is an incredible sport. I love to watch people like Steph Gilmore who are so awesome at it. They make it look so easy.
I’ve tried surfing in only 3-foot waves on a long board and find it extremely difficult. These girls are kicking butt on some of the biggest waves in the world, doing tricks on a short board. Truly amazing, and it definately deserves some attention.
