My name is Nimsay García, I'm 21 years old. Im a full time college student and athlete. I'm a pioneer in what is female SUP surfing and what is professional SUP racing here in Puerto Rico and i intend to keep spreading awareness of our representation in this sport, spoken or in the water. I'm part of a surfing and Paddleboard school named Paddle Sur. Me and my family run it. I love speaking about my sport in different aspects of my life, represent it in my art, and educate different social groups about it. One of my biggest dreams for the SUP sport is for it to reach the Olympics and for it to be in college sports too, globally.
