Caity Simmers, Stud or Dud?

Bump after rookie season win number 2.

Future World Champ, 100%. Hell, maybe this year.

Not this year but one more result and she at least gets a chance.

I am really looking forward to her in Tahiti.

 

[SurfMission]

Who is World Champ first, her or Griffin? What do the oddsmakers have that at?

Or better, who will be Californias next World Champion?

Simmers next word champ from ca

To be fair, the current system makes it a crapshoot. If they dont switch back to a full season title it’s possible neither ever wins. But my money is on Caity.

 

[silentbutdeadly]

the current system is insanely horrible. I really don't understand how one can think this is good

San Clemente produces some excellent surfers. First Filipe Toledo, now Caity! Dayum!

Don’t forget Jordy and Caroline.

 

[Jack-the-Ripper]

She's a good kid too. World Title for sure. She deserves it.

 

[StuAzole]

Are you serious?

Plenty of surfers better than her have, and do call Oceanside home.

There are some gems in this thread.

Question though: has she got chops at Pipe, Sunset, J-Bay and Chopes?

It’s crazy - in just over a season she’s won Pipe, come 2nd at Chopes and 5th at Sunset. If I’m a betting man, that Sunset result improves in the next week or so.

 

[bluengreen]

Did anyone catch her interview after winning Pipe?

"Pipe is for the fucking girls."

 

[silentbutdeadly]

She’s my favorite.

but holy damn I gained a ton of respect for Molly and Betty. This new crop is so rad. Bring on Sierra!

Exactly! I felt kinda bad for Betty, that heat with Molly was for the ages, I hope she gets the credit she deserves. That heat could have gone either way to be honest even if I think Molly is a more refined tube rider.

 

[silentbutdeadly]

Molly is the obvious event mvp.

damn I am a pro ho. I love this chit. So stocked to see this new crew change the regime

Scary thing if you’re a rival of Caity is she’s only going to get better or blow out her knees like John. Some of those closeout floaters she does are gnar gnar.

She’s going to add weight and muscles, more power will make her even harder to beat.

Same for Erin Brooks. She’s built pretty tiny still. Sierra Kerr looks more sturdy.
