This past quarter saw Sally spend a considerable period in Hawaii where she surfed Haleiwa, Sunset and Maui. Sally prepared well for the WQS at Haleiwa and was disappointed with a 9th place finish. Moving on to the Roxy Pro at Sunset Sally met some solid conditions during preparation and during the Trials event. Sally won the Trials convincingly and was unlucky not to progress further into the main draw. To finish the Hawaii season Sally went to Maui to practice but there was little swell and she returned home for Christmas and her 18th birthday. Reflecting on a big year Sally feels all her goals were achieved.

In January Sally went to Morocco for a Roxy road trip. To say the least it was an interesting trip with the usual lost boards, colder than expected weather and surf that was big and confused by a large storm off the coast of France. Sal managed to surf every day except one and returned with plenty of interesting stories about a culture and place she had not been to before.
