Santa Cruz, CA (PRWEB) April 15, 2005 -- Performance clothing designer and
manufacturer Girls4Sport is proud to sponsor longboard champion, Summer Romero.
Romero recently placed 1st in the first of three contests in the 2005 U.S.
Longboard Championship series that kicked off in Cocoa Beach, Florida on March
25 and continues her reign as one of the top women longboarders.
“Girls4Sport’s mission is to inspire girls of all ages to lead
confident, active lives,” says Kim Ruby, President of Girls4Sport. “Summer’s
passion for surfing combined with her career goals, makes her a stand-out as a
G4S Team Rider. Our team riders are accomplished athletes and genuine role
models -- successfully balancing work, school, sport, exercise, and
life.”
Summer’s Soul
From the minute she took to the waters off San
Diego, California at the age of 14, Romero was hooked on surfing. Romero, 23,
started competing in 1999 and has since climbed to the top ranks in women’s
longboarding with her stylistic skills. Balancing and attaining all her goals is
another one of Romero’s skills. Romero was recently accepted to The School of
Nursing at San Diego State University. She surfs everyday she can, at least five
days per week, pushing her surfing to new levels and preparing for competitions
around the world.
Romero’s most recent first place win
at the 2005 U.S. Longboard Championship Series in Cocoa Beach tops off her other
title wins: 2004 Women’s World Longboard Champion and 2nd in the 2003 U.S.
Longboard Championships. These are just a few on top of her other regional
contest titles.
“Surfing has taken me places I never
thought I would see. I’ve met amazing new friends who share the same passion,”
says Summer Romero. “Each surf session allows me to express myself in new ways
and gives me renewed energy for school work.”
In
addition to surfing to stay active, Romero has recently started to rock climb.
Bob’s Mission Surf Shop, Hotline Wetsuits, Hawaiian Pro Design Surfboards, Ocean
Earth, and Zinka also sponsor Romero.
