Second Breakfast with Surf With Amigas

A Former SWA Coach is Pushing the Limits in Women’s Big Wave Surfing

Surf With Amigas

Today we connect with Delia Bense-Kang, a former Surf With Amigas instructor and big wave surfer. Although she hasn’t always identified as a big wave surfer, since learning to surf as a young girl she has consistently run towards what most of us would consider to be big waves. She first began to push her limits in the cold, heavy waves of Northern California but is now living in Hawaii, where she continues to challenge herself in even heavier (but warm water) waves, chasing swells worldwide alongside the big wave community. In this episode, Delia shares a recent story of her biggest wave (and wipeout) in Todos Santos, Mexico, her tips for dealing with fear, training, and other techniques we can all use to build our own confidence and capabilities in the water.
