Here’s a cool new website for Girls & Boys, made by Girls with mostly Girls content: http://aswelaybodyboarding.wordpress.com
Yeah girls!
Here’s the “About” section on their website:
We would like to welcome you to As We Lay. As the name suggest As we Lay is about life on the boog.
This is about two of Australia’s top female bodyboarders doing what they love. Emma Cobb and Lauren Frost, want to show you their world. The training , the comps, the Free surfing, the traveling, the adventures and all the times in between. What it actually means to be a female bodyboarder in Australia.
Along the way they will introduce you to the Australian girls and keep you up to date with their lives, you will slowly get to know them, and what they get up to both on and off tour!
Emma and Lauren met in 2003, in they Debut year on the Australasian Tour. Their friendship grew strong and has seen them travel throughout the country and overseas competing both nationally and internationally.
Along the way the posse grew bigger with a mix of the older generation and the up and coming girls. Life long friendships have been built on the simple and pure basis of their love of the ocean.
Life as a female Australian Bodyboarder has never been portrayed in a unique way until now. There has been a strong generalisation amongst Australian womens bodyboarding over the last four years. It is our goal to show you the diversity, beauty and feministic side of the individuals who make up this sport in Australia.
We hope you enjoy this site. Take the time to get to know us. Follow us. Ask us questions. You never know one day you might be traveling along side of us.
Enjoy the Journey.

Our first girl interview on Spongercity.com – Currently #2 on the womens bodyboarding world tour, Spanish bodyboarder Eunate really impressed everyone with her riding and her approach of the media/communation side of things, releasing super cool video clips and imagery, taking care of her riding as well as the image she creates and really showing everyone what girls are capable of on a boogieboard. We thought it was high time to interview Eunate and learn more about her, her riding, her training, her projects and views about the bodyboard scene etc.
Isabella Sousa wins the 2010 IBA World Tour. Congrats !
Brazilian Isabella Sousa totaled 860 points at the 2010 BPF in Venezuela and despite finishing in second place at this championship, the total was enough points to win the 2010 IBA WWT World title.
Sousa and Eunate Aguirre (Spain) went wave for wave in the final until Aguirre walked away with the first place in a exciting heat with extreme wave conditions, with some sets pushing 8-10 feet. Eunate was just too strong and put in an amazing performance but the victory was bittersweet. She was also vying for the 2010 WWT title in a year where Neymara Carvalho was off.
Check the IBA Tour site for more about the tour and contestants.
