    "I wouldn't say that I'm a better surfer than anyone, but I actually work really hard." I just cannot believe that a 7 year old girl could say something so mature. She's already figured it out. She's going to make it, 100%.

      She so lucky when I was her age I had to milk the cows,weed the garden,feed the animals and prepare the dough for next days bread before I was allowed down the beach.lol Some kids just have all the luck.

      +cabbage man what are you talking about, you sound very lucky as you had many (farm) animals I'm guessing. I've always wanted animals like that, I can dream for now...

      It's not about the possibilities that one have as a child but to know what she wants to do from such a young age. That's remarkable

      For sure, that's good parenting. No need to compare herself to anyone. Just let her surfing do the talking.

      Diane, your a fuckin moron. Did you see her house? Was nothing special, lower middle class at best. I agree that encouraging parents are a huge factor in her success though... that’s different than the meaning of societal privilege though.

      @Ph.D.. 7 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      I so agree with this statement. So much God given or natural talent is wasted b/c no caring adult, parent or other person of capabilities/means is paying attention & guiding their own children or others to success. I see if everyday. Our world's travesty, not putting effort into our next generations.

      That bitch probably had been dragging her into the beach since she was 4 until she knew nothing but surfing because the mom always wanted to. It happens a lot lately with these "naturally talented" children and i would not be amazed if she gets skin cancer before hitting 16 or stopped surfing because she always hated it

    I love her and her parents. She's just like I'm not better than anyone else, I just work really hard. She has no fear, only ambition. And her parents are just really impressed by her focus and drive, and they're also just like, we don't care what she decides to do in life, as long as she's happy :) That made me happy. #LifeAndFamilyGoals

    @mada_mada_ 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    wow, it`s not her surfer skills that are amazing- it`s her focus! I mean, for a 7 year old that`s...well, incredible! She is not waiting for someone to put things in front of her- she goes out and makes it happen! That part, where she woke up before her mom, did research and knew where she wanted to go! I wish I showed so much initiative about things when I was growing up...instead I messed around a lot, without properly understanding how to things and not trying enough to make them work! This is some precious child!

    Quincy you are a role model. You work hard to achieve your dreams. Stop once in a while and thank your parents, too for encouraging you to achieve your dreams. May your dreams always bring a smile to your face!

  • @stephgmeister

    What a beautiful family relationship and story. Quincy is truly an inspiration. She is humble but also acknowledges that she deserves the enjoyment the ocean brings and this requires passion and love.
    I learned how to surf as a young pre-teen then gave it up because I became easily discouraged/kept comparing myself to others who were better than me and made a million of other excuses not to go.... In the back of my mind surfing was always something I wanted to get good at but had just failed to put in the required effort and time.... Now at 24 yrs old I surf almost everyday in some of the best surf beaches of Southern California and it is the best feeling. I will never stop. I have acquired the love for the deep blue which won't ever go away.

    She is really amazing! Already a great and positive role model for the kids across the globe (especially little girls). I genuinely hope she will follow her dream despite all the bigotry, hatred, meninists/MRAs and other hurdles on her way. Best wishes to Quincy Symonds!

    All these comments about how beautiful she is... It's no wonder woman are so objectified in our culture. She's a 7 year old people! Let's put emphasis on what's important. Her devotion to the sport of surfing and her unrelenting drive and ambition! And kudos to her amazing parents as well for raising such a fierce independent warrior.

    • @_theaven_5907

      This girl is beautiful. That's because she probably eats good and obviously works out a lot without even knowing she does. If people would eat better, work out more and drink more water, they definetly will become more "beautiful".
      But of course the Video isn't about a *beautiful* 7 year old surf girl. No it's only about a 7 year old surf girl. So i get how your thought of objectification came up. But you forgot about something. People who are beautiful get more attention. (that's probably why they took a good picture of her in the thumbnail) so of course People would comment stuff about her beauty. Her beauty gets attention. I don't think that it is Bad.
      It would be Bad if all the attention would Focus on her beauty and nobody Sees the Surfer girl, the talented girl, the determined girl. But for now it doesn't and therefore i would say that you are overreacting.
      Although i'm happy that There are People, like you @Cpt.AirWolf fighting for her to still be seen at what she truly is.
      A flying squirrel
      Be determined, Make your dreams become reality and be thankful for everything you have:)!

    Oh it makes me so so sad!!! First of all she is so beautiful! Then second point, she makes me jealous. Thirdly she has a goal and she is surfing from a young age. I never started a sport or started playing an instrument. She is getting better and better over the years. I have nothing like that. I wish I started something at a young age so that I could be professional. It makes me cry all the time when I see a little girl or boy doing the things they love and the things they're passionate about.

    Would everyone stop talking about her looks and focus on her talent. She's seven, and already the comments surround the subject of her appearance. Its these kind of attitudes that lead to women athletes not being taking as seriously or discriminated against. Let alone the fact she's a bloody child.

    She is an incredible little girl. To get that good takes lots of time in the water and support from family. My daughter loves to swim and remember sitting by the pool watching her swim for hours everyday. She would have an hour of swim class then two hours of swim team along with many hour just playing with friends.
