Encinitas professional surfer Alyssa Spencer won SurferGirl Surf Pro on Nov. 9 in Jacksonville Beach, Fla. The World Surf League Qualifying Series (QS) win was the 22-year-old Spencer’s third time in her career donning the Super Girl cape, the first ever to do it at the QS level, tying Hawaiian surfer Coco Ho. “Incredibly blessed to be a part of such an amazing event,” Spencer posted on Instagram, celebrating her historic win. “I attended my first SuperGirl Pro when I was seven years old, bright eyed, and dreaming of doing what those girls were doing one day. It was also my very first QS event I did at 12 years old where I finally got to surf against some of my idols. Over the years these events have inspired and pushed me in so many ways and been a huge part of my career.” The SuperGirl victory was also Spencer’s second this month, going back-to-back after winning the La Marginal Surfing Pro in Arecibo, Puerto Rico on Nov. 2. According to a press release, Spencer now moves to number one in the North American region in the QS tier, and currently sits in the 11th spot on the Challenger Series with the hopes of returning to the WSL Championship Tour, the highest level of surf competition. “I’m just always trying to have fun. I love surfing so much, and having fun is what it’s all about,” said Spencer in the news release. “I would just say thank you so much (to Coco Ho) for all the inspiration that she gave me. It’s really special to have my name right there next to hers as the only two girls to have won three. I came close in Oceanside, and I really wanted to get it here, so I’m so grateful it happened. I miss my family and thank you to my mom, dad, my grandma, and my brother for watching. I love you guys.”.
