Miscellaneous
Two Time Big Wave World Champion Paige Alms was born in Canada. At age 7, a life-altering trip completely changed the course for her family and set Paige on the path toward shaping modern big wave surfing. Paige is a co-founder of the Committee for Equity in Women’s Surfing (CEWS), established in 2016, with her peers in professional big wave surfing: Keala Kennelly, Andrea Moller, and Bianca Valenti. Their vision and persistence in challenging the World Surf League’s history of pay inequity played a key role in demanding the WSL to implement pay parity and bolster women’s representation at big wave events. Paige is an all-around waterperson, who excels when the ocean is 1 foot or 50 --- whether through wing-dinging on unbroken swell lines, or becoming the first woman to get barrelled at Pe'ahi. .....Listen with Lauren L.
