This Year’s Thailand Surf Series sponsored by Quiksilver showed the world the beauty and grace of one of Thailand’s up-coming female surfers. Placing in both the Wahine (ladies) division as well as in the Grom (kids) division was our own Annissa Tita Flynn from Phuket Thaihua School.

In an official letter from Quiksilver’s Jake Paterson (Sports and Marketing SEA), Annissa has been officially invited to compete in the “Quiksilver King of The Grom” surfing competition in Kuta Beach, Bali on July 9th through 12th.On behalf of the Phuket Boardriders Club, we would like to send our congratulations and a warm ALOHA to Annissa!

Annissa Tita Flynn was born underwater in a spa bath in Sydney Australia, and has loved being in the water ever since! She started surfing less than two years ago but quickly became a true grom in heart and soul! When Annissa is not surfing she loves doing her homework and playing the video game 'Surfs-Up'. Young Annissa sends us all an environmental message, “I wish people wouldn't use so many plastic bags so we don't find them in the surf”.
