Capetonian and madly skilled chick surfer Stacey Guy has been chosen by Island Style International to head up their 2009 Pro Girl’s Surf team.
“Yay, I’m so stoked to be on the team, really happy with the deal!” said Stacey of her new sponsor. At just 24 years old, Stacey is the number two women’s surfer in South Africa.
Despite her young age, Stacey has already wracked up a long list of achievements and accolades, and she is already regarded as one of South Africa’s most formidable female competitors.
She earned her South African Junior colours in 2002 and 2003 and was WP Champion in every year from 2002 until 2007. She is apparently just as at home in front of the lens as she is in the surf, because she has already been featured on the cover of no less than five major international surfing publications, including Saltwater Girl Surf (twice), Liquid Girls Surfing Magazine, SurfGirl Europe (twice).
“Stacey is an awesome personality to have on board,” said Kyle Mclaren, Island Style’s Marketing Manager. “She is well respected by male and female surfers the World over and has been a formidable entity in the South African surf scene and on the local and international competitive calendar – her results definitely speak for themselves.”
