Courtney Conlogue

Courtney Conlogue gets waves at some high profile breaks, breaks she calls her local spots. Its nothing out of the ordinary to see the same surfer catching waves at Lowers, Creek and HB pier, but when that surfer is a 15-year-old-girl, who surfs better than 95 to 100% of the lineup. When Conlogue surfs, heads turn. Conlogue is part of a new movement in surfing that rivals the innovation and transformation of the sport that we saw during the new school generation berth 15 years ago. Conlogue is en-route to super stardom with pro-junior wins and an integral role on the USA team. It will not take long for the regular footer from Santa Ana to be at the forefront of women’s surfing.

Birth date: 8/25/92
Height: 5’7”
Weight: 125 lbs.
Stance: Regular
Board: Tubba and Bushman
Hometown: Santa Ana
Local Spot: Huntington Beach, Lowers, and Salt Creek
Local Crew: I love to hang with my family and my friends Dylan and Lexi.
Influences: Currently it¹s Lisa Anderson, Stephanie Gilmore, Rob Machado, and, I know everybody says this, but Kelly Slater.
Results: ‘07 USA Surf Team, 1st at ’07 Billabong Pro Junior at Sebastian Inlet, 5th at ’06 NSSA Nationals Open Womens division, 4th at ‘06 U.S. Open Target Womens Pro Junior
Goals: I¹m a sophomore in high school so that will take up a lot of my time.  I will surf as much as possible before and after school. Hopefully there might be a Junior Pro and WQS’ for women in California that I
can do. Otherwise, I¹ll be mostly NSSA.  I¹m going to Australia in January, which should be fun, and I hope to continue with the USA surf team and if possible the X Games.
