Hi!
Thanks for visiting.
My name is Lilly and I'm a bodyboarder from Werri Beach in NSW Australia :)

I am winner of the Australasian Pro Tour in 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011 and 2012.
I just finished in 7th place on the 2013 IBA World Tour, my dream is to bring the World Title back to Australia!

My main aim is to promote happiness, kindness, healthy living and to always be pushing yourself in some kind of venture. I love travelling, I love good barrelling waves and chasing swells all over the world, and I love the dedication needed to be a good competitor.
I'm always keeping my Facebook athlete page updated with all my adventures, so be sure to 'like' my page to stayed informed: https://www.facebook.com/bodyboarderlillypollard

I'm looking for assistance to help me achieve my dream of becoming world champion, and also showcasing girls charging in waves of consequence. If you think you can help, shoot me an email at: lillypollard81@yahoo.com.au
Many thanks to my current sponsors for their support: Flipmode Clothing, Hive Swimwear, GoPro cameras, Zion Wetsuits, Travel Insurance Direct, BoogerBod training and Treehugger Wax.

Some of my best bodyboarding pics!

I'm pretty lucky to be able to say that I have received more magazine coverage the past few years than any other Australian bodyboard girl, and more than most of the International girls as well!
It sounds very conceited of me to say that, but all I know is I work bloody hard for it!

Every swell I am hunting for good waves and calling photographers and putting myself into some scary positions for the shots! I bodyboard for the love of waves, and especially for the love of deep spitting pits!
I would still surf these heavy spots if there was noone around shooting, it's just I know that if I ever want to be a fully paid professional and really showcase to the world what girl bodyboarders can do, I need to get some photographic evidence to prove it!

Anyway, here are some of my best shots:
















These are just a selection of some of my best pics. Thanks to photographers Emma Roby, Brad Lewis, Robert Sherwood, Andrew Smythe, Calum Macauly, and Pedro Fernandez for allowing my use of these shots. Please respect the photographers by not "stealing" any of these shots. Thanks :)

    you are giving girls like me the confidence to do such things and you're really showing us that it ISN'T just a boys sport, and that we can shine in such a sport!
