Ms. Namita Nayyar:
How did you feel before and after when in December 2008 you became the first New Zealand woman to qualify for the ASP Women’s World Tour. What a proud moment for you and your country?
Ms. Paige Hareb:
Yeah it took me a while to get my head around it because I never really thought about it at all, I’m proud to be a kiwi and a role model for all women and girls.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Elaborate on your stance “Naturally goofy! (right foot forward)” and how does it gives you a competitive advantage?
Ms. Paige Hareb:
Most people surf “natural” with their left foot forward so when we surf a right-hander they are all on their forehand and I’m on my backhand, sometimes it has it’s advantages but it has disadvantages too so you have to try grab the advantages when you can.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You have said about your surfing board that “Mt Woodgee’s shaped by Wayne McKewen is the best shaper”, tell us more about this and advantages you conceive on using this in your competitions?
Ms. Paige Hareb:
Yeah I’ve been with MtWoodgee for many years now and having Wayne as my shaper the whole time and working with him helps him design boards that will work for my surfing style. I trust him and I’ve had a lot of amazing surfboards from him so I hope we can both keep being loyal with one another.
