About:
Keira has been a standout performer on south coast beaches and reefs so many years which is hard to believe considering she is just 15. Keira recently led Ulladulla Boardriders Women’s tag team to a victory in the Global Surf NSW south tag event at Coledale Beach by posting massive scores throughout the event. She also blew minds at the Surfing Australia Web Titles by ripping apart 2 lefts at a local reef to earn top honours in the prestigious event. Keira found herself on the top of the ratings at the end of 2019 in the Rip Curl Gromsearch series with strong performances around Australia. With older brothers Ben and Beau pushing her in the water, Keira is never short of competitive fire. With a beautiful smile and warm nature Keira has an exciting career ahead of herself as one of Australia’s best up and coming surfers. We look forward to watching it play out over the next few years.
