Surfer girls today don’t satisfied themselves only by shredding on the waves and some of them decided to combine their passion with their work by creating the brand of surfwear, swimwear, surfbag, jewel, etc. Here are a few portraits of those single-minded creative surfer who have gold in their hands.
