Shaped by her then-boyfriend, Hawaiian surfer/shaper Ken Bradshaw, this is one of the boards Manly's Layne Beachley rode to win the world professional surfing championship in 2000, the third of her six consecutive world pro titles. That incredible record is the most successive titles won by any individual since pro surfing’s world championship tour started in 1976. Alongside that extraordinary achievement, Layne also won a seventh world pro crown in 2006 plus three world masters championships in 2011, 2013 and 2018. Apart from all that, Layne was also a pioneering female big wave surfer and served as a board member of pro surfing throughout her competitive career. After retiring she set up a charitable foundation that ran for 15 years, awarding more than 500 scholarships and providing mentoring support to young women, and in 2015 became the first female chair of Surfing Australia, a position she continues to hold in 2019.
