Wendy talks about waiting for her bi-monthly Surfer Magazine subscription and she would always be disappointed… as no women surfers were ever highlighted! She still gets misty-eyed when she sees how far women surfers have come and much more they are represented. Linda Benson was one of Wendy’s surf icons and one of the highlights of her surfing career and life is not only surfing with Linda but becoming friends with the women’s surf legend. Wendy surfed in contests and traveled the globe, but her passion wasn’t competing, it was surfing with other women she admired and looked up to. She and her sister would surf in Galveston, Texas on rented boards while their parents fished. Born in San Antonio, Texas in 1952, Wendy didn’t start surfing until she was 10, but once her toes tickled the topside of a board she was hooked for life. ![]()
