Im a 17 year old surfer from the west coast. I've been surfing ever since I was 9 nine years old and fell in love with the sport. I practice every day including physical training. A typical day in my life is waking up to go surf with friends, study, eat, and surf or train again. This sport is such a big part of my life and has shaped me into the person I am today

Hi my name is Sinai Soto Perez, I am 12 years old. I grew up in Aguadilla Puerto Rico with my parents and my 2 sisters, we have always been a family of surfers. Since I remember, I always loved the ocean. Year by year practicing more and more and doing all the surfing competitions in the island. I join the Puerto Rican team this year with 12 years old and it is a privileged and an honor to represent my country at such a young age in the 2022 ISA World Junior Championships. Seeing the girls surfing generation grow has been wonderful, and to grow with it more exciting. Besides surfing there are more sports I love to do like skate, juijitsu and gymnastics, these three sports have been an important key for my performance in surfing.My goals are to win the 2022 ISA junior championship and be a professional WSL surfer, go to the Olympics,have a physician profession and obtain more knowledge and experience throughout the years.

Hello my name is Miamar Soto Perez.I am 14 years old, was born in Aguadilla I live with my parents and 2 sisters. My parents also surf, and I grew up in a surfing environment which led me to compete at my 5 years of age and I've always love it so much. I feel so happy being able to be in the water and with my family. I also do other hobbies other than surf and skate. I write songs and sing, study theater, jiujitsu, capoeira, gimnastics, play the ukulele and piano. Started making jewelry about two years ago and I love bees and apiculture. My plans for the future in surfing are making the cut in the WSL and the olympics and become a professional surfer. Also finishing studies in Natural Medicine and become Natural medicine Physician and, would love to travel the world and teach others about God Jesus and all his wonderful stories.
