1st place Women's Pipeline Championships, 1st place Roxy Pro Trials, 1st place Rip Curl Girls Festival Jr and so on... When you were 4-yrs old and still crapping your pants, Alana Blanchard was learning to ride a surfboard. When you were 9-yrs old and screwing up the school play, Alana was entering and winning surfing competitions. Not only is she one of the best female surfers in the world, but she's drop dead gorgeous. It may be the middle of winter, but inside this gallery it's always summer and the water is just fine.
