Something we can all relate to! • The thing is, that none of us are perfect, and none of us are exactly the same… surfing is a great equaliser. It’s a place where we can shed our differences and come together with a shared love. Unfortunately, the broader surf media doesn’t represent this diversity or the lived reality of most women’s surfing experiences. We aim to bridge this gap between reality and surf industry representations (which is just one of the reasons we don’t use pics of headless women or butt shows) by showcasing everyday surfers doing what they love. This is what we’ve been doing for five years and over that time, we seem some positive changes in the way women surfers are represented but there’s still a long way to go! We love it when you share your surf shots with us so that we can show the world what women’s surfing *really* looks like in all its iterations… sometimes it’s pretty, but often it’s more like this! • Surfer♀️~ @noshoes_noworries Pic~ @mxmsurfphoto • • • #surfsirens #surflikeagirl #surflife #womenssurfing #becausewecan #surfgirls #surfing #surfer #surfergirl #girlsurfer #fridayvibes #reallife (at Manly, New South Wales, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0oqrhvB7mD/?igshid=fle54dmmp1ai

It’s time to get active. On Tuesday, Norwegian company @equinor - a company that is two thirds state owned - formally released their draft environmental plan for deep water oil drilling in the Great Australian Bight. They want to drill later this year. Equinor’s own spill modelling sees oil spread along thousands of kilometres of pristine Australian coastline. It would be catastrophic on every level. The plan is before industry regulator NOPSEMA and is open now to public comment for the next 30 days. This is your chance to tell them that Big Oil does not belong in the Great Australian Bight. Submit an objection, ring your local MP, email (or call) Melissa Price, the Federal Minister for Environment. With almost 1 million surfers in Australia, we *can* make a difference but only if we make our voices heard. Our coastlines are too precious to coat in oil. • Pic 1~ oil spill clean up in California via @surfriderla Pic 2~ @equinor spill mapping • • • #surfsirens #fightforthebight #oilspill #nowaynorway #womenssurfing #cyclineoma #surfgirl #surfergirl #girlsurfer https://www.instagram.com/p/BuKG14BhCK6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jlp3ulto1ssh
