Carissa Moore has established herself as a powerhouse in women’s surfing, a world champ who’s not afraid to compete against the guys and pull moves no other women are doing in the water.
She started collecting wins at the NSSA junior surf competitions and top spots at the ISA World Junior Surfing Championships, where she helped Hawaii win a team victory.
In all, she clinched a record 11 NSSA amateur titles, and at age 16 in 2008, she became the youngest champion at a Triple Crown of Surfing event when she won the Reef Hawaiian Pro.
In 2010, Carissa qualified for her first season on the ASP World Tour, which is now known as the World Surf League. In that debut season, she won two major contests, finished third overall, and was named Rookie of the Year.
