Check out this e-mail we got from one of our friends....
Dear Roxy Company, Hello, I have a dog and her name is Roxy and she does the cutest thing. My mom bought your boots and left them outside her closet and a few minutes later she left. While I was at home with the dog alone I realized that Roxy was being very quiet so I looked everywhere and she was in the strangest place...she was in one of the Roxy boots asleep. Every night that's where she sleeps, either in or on top of the boots. One time my mom put the boots in her closet and Roxy whined and whined until my mom opened the closet. Roxy ran in and she tried to drag the boot out so my mom took them out and she sat right in the top of them. I have some cute pictures of Roxy and the Roxy boots.
Heavy 6-8 feet conditions (with occasionally 10ft waves coming through), a group of the best women surfers in the world, and a run for the world championship title on the line....and Sofia Mulanovich stepped it up to fly past her competitors and crown herself the 2007 Roxy Pro Champion! With only one more world tour event left this year, Sofia is now 2nd in the world and only needs 99 point to win the 2007 world title. After watching Sofia dominate her final heat, current leader Stephanie Gilmore congratulated her win and told the crowd "game on". The final WCT event will be the last of the Triple Crown series and begins in Maui on Dec.8th. In the meantime Sofia can smile and celebrate her surfing today, 'cause she's bringing her A-game!
Hey! In case you missed the live web cast I've compiled some of the official interviews from the Roxy Pro site. This is really cool footage of the surfers talking about the waves, atmosphere and competition here at Sunset Beach. The video is split into two parts. Take a look!

Did I mention how big & scary the waves are during winter here on the North Shore? Well imagine you are 5 ft tall and 14 years old....you'd think you'd be frighten to step even near the mountainous barreling sets. But not these Roxy chicklets! They have been taking the North Shore by STORM. I caught up with the little superstars at a Roxy photo shoot, and got myself introduced to the best young surfers from around the world. A few of them even competed in the elite Roxy Pro trials today, where they showed off their incredible talent and potential. Have a pen handy to write down these names, 'cause these girls are going to take the future of women's surfing to a whole new level.
The Roxy Pro Hawaii behind the scenes coverage begins with a little surf adventure! Meet riders Laura Enver, Kassia Meador, Jen Smith, and Lindsay Noyes from the Roxy Team Riders house on the North Shore as they surf, eat, and be merry
Aloha Friends!
I'm writing you from the porch of the Roxy Team house at Sunset Beach in Oahu. It's got a ridiculously sweet view of the ocean, and when the light pours through my window in the morning I wake up to sunshine and a perfect surf check. Tons and tons of waves out here but still considered a bit small for the infamous North Shore, so the official Roxy Pro contest is in a holding period. Though it's been "too small" to hold a big wave contest for the best women pro surfers, don't get the wrong idea!! These waves are big and powerful, and there's been enough of a fun break for the pro girls to get out there and practice, play around on longboards, and get tons of photos taken. All the top professional photographers and videographers are out here snapping shots for surfing magazines and film, and this place is definitely the mecca of surfing!! I'm stoked to be giving you updates on the action, and I'll be posting all the latest news right here on roxy.com. There will be stories, goofy pictures, and behind the scene videos of the girls. In fact check back soon for a video from my first day at the house in Hawaii....
Let the adventures begin!
