About the owners

Vicki was born in 1973 in the mid-New South Wales coastal town of Port Maquarie, Australia, and began bodyboarding in 1989 because her brother Pete (a former pro bodyboarder and current top bodyboarding photographer himself) got her into it. She started competing right away, and excelling in all levels of competitive bodyboarding. After high school, Vicki began traveling, meeting up with Jay in Hawaii in the winter of 1991. They had met two years before in Australia when Jay was in town for some international competitions. It was there that Vicki got a taste for the big, hollow surf at spots like Pipe and Off-The-Wall.

Vicki began her pro career that winter and quickly caught the eye of major sponsors allowing her to go on magazine photo trips, and eventually join the new Global Organization of Bodyboarders World Tour. Vicki, the lone Aussie on the Tour held her own with the top girls, and managed Top 10 finishes in the year-end ratings for several years and remains in the Top 16. In 1998, she became the first Australian Women's Pro Champ, and and her last major event was the 1998 World Surfing Games in Portugal where she finished 3rd. Additionally, Vicki many-time women's World FlowRider Bodyboarding Champion! She is currently based in California, but has traveled to 5 continents on promotional trips, photo shoots, and for competition.

Her accolades include being the first female bodyboarder ever on the cover of Australia's Riptide Magazine. She also appeared on "Baywatch", and in a "Pepsi" television commercial that aired in Australia and New Zealand. Vicki has won the BodyBoarding Magazine and Australian Bodyboarder Readers' Polls numerous times and has placed top 5 in the Riptide Peer Poll. She has also appeared in over 15 bodyboard-related publications worldwide, in addition to women's sports magazines, newspapers, local and national television, and has hosted TV shows in Japan and the U.S. She loves running, playing field hockey, and enjoys cooking, and ran in the 2005 LA Marathon (her first), and has been training in the spring of 2005 for her first triathlon. Most importantly she loves being a mom to her daughter Saige who was born in September of 2003.
