Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Advice and motivational words to the inspiring and budding professional surfing girls who all are your fans, what they should do for their climb to ladder of success in the field of professional surfing?
Ms. Claire Bevilacqua:
Nothing comes easy, if you want something don’t expect it to fall in your lap you have to be a go getter and put yourself out there. Don’t be afraid of failure or people saying no, it’s all just a test of character and how bad you want it.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
How did you feel before and after when in 2003 you became the Australian Junior Women’s Champion. What a proud moment for you?
Ms. Claire Bevilacqua:
I knew it was the beginning of my international career. Once I was the best in the country I knew I could be one of the best in the world.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You have done bold photo shoots for 2009 ESPN Body Issue Magazine. What advice you wish to give to the women of today to be body confident in order to do such bold modelling and do you wish to see more female surfers do the same ?
Ms. Claire Bevilacqua:
It took me a long time to be proud of my muscles. I was so insecure in my youth from bullying because of my athletic figure. I think as you mature you become more confident. It was a breakthrough moment for me, I worked hard for my fitness so I was proud to promote it to others. I don’t know how to explain it I just didn’t care what others thought anymore and I embraced the opportunity.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
In 2006, you collaborated with “Volcom” to create the “Bevo Signature Series” line of girl shorts. Kindly elaborate on this endeavor of yours?
Ms. Claire Bevilacqua:
Volcom asked me to design a short and so the first thing I thought of was function, fashion and a bit naughty. I was a bit of a rebel back then so I think they represented that.
