Sophie Primed Up in AC!

By cfalzone News

October 19, 2013 was a fun day in Atlantic City, NJ For the First East coast Event of the 2013/2014 Surfing America Prime Season. And the Surf was really good all week, Sophie started off strong winning her first heat of girls u16. and Placing 2nd and moving on in u18. The semis were really intense, Sophie surfed valiantly but got edged out of the u16 in the last seconds, giving her an equal 5th place result and valuable points. The u18 semi was a different story firmly holding on to second and battling to maintain that position. Sophie made it to the u18 girls final and held in there taking 4th place respectively. She had a great event and really turned some heads dropping big scores.

There is a great article on the event at Eastern Surf Magazine, Thanks to Surfing America for the killer photo!

What another great event Sophie surfed a really hard fought heat in round 1 but came up short. What a great experience though, And to get another awesome coaching session with USA Team Coach Ryan Simmons (aka Coach Simmo) was a great learning experience. Cant wait for US Champs in California!

North Shore Surf Training with Coach Kahea Hart

By cfalzone News

We just returned from a trip to Oahu Hawaii, where Sophie trained 2 times a day for 10 days with Hawaiian team coach and Pro Surfer Kahea Hart, Kahea’s program is physical, challenging, and is one of the best. If you want to improve your surfing he is the guy to work with. From Mechanics to mental toughness and wave knowledge he covers it all. There is a reason the kids from Hawaii are winning all their events and this guy has a lot to do with it. Check his site out at: nsschawaii.com

Sophie Shreddin’ NSSA East Coast Championships

By cfalzone News

Sophie experienced her first NSSA East Coast Championships contest last week in sloppy 2-4′ conditions in New Smyrna Beach, With a staked heat in Round 1, She surfed very strong with high scoring snappy turns earning her 2nd Place and moved her to the Semi-Final or reporcharge round. With the waves not cooperating and breaking pretty funky she needed a 2 to advance to the final and just did not get it.

Sophie finished the NSSA season in 3rd place in her district and 8th over all at East coast championships, So Top 10 in her first season is a great accomplishment in our books!
