Layne Beachley Classic!! Beaten by a 14 year old!


Tyler Wright is the tiny 14 year old from New South Wales who beat out world champs, recently retired Layne Beachley and my WHOLE fantasy surfer team at Manly beach this year. After winning an international grom search title last year Wright is wasting no time and taking no prisoners as she takes the title of youngest winner of an ASP World Tour event.

  Exciting times for the ladies, yet no live video feed, little to no photo albums, press? flashy websites? .....ok Wright did get a good amount of mention in the local and international press and I know its a male dominated sport but really, you'd think that would make women's surfing all the more enticing. What I'm trying to say is aside from them being super fit and wearing bikinis they all shred! who doesn't want to see more of that?
