Lately, I haven't had a lot of time for training, what with everything to organise for the upcoming tour. I am fit - although not extra fit. There is always room for improvement. Well, we are getting a lot more exposure than in the past. There are more females surfing than ever before, which provides more exposure to the sponsors.
Prize money is still a lot lower than the men's.
Prize money is low, so females surf solely for exposure. I get so exasperated. I used to fork out R800, which I didn't have, to fly to Cape Town to enter an event, not getting a cent back, but getting really good exposure. There were about 24-26 girls competing. That was really cool.
