World, meet Rachael Tilly. Rachael, meet the world. But really, this introduction is hardly necessary as Rachael continues to solidify herself in the professional longboard world. She's been the Scholastic Surf Series longboard champion for two years in a row (this year she was also the finalist with the highest GPA, garnering her the Scholarship Award), the Western Surfing Association champion in the under 14 division two years in a row and just this past weekend she came in third at the East Coast Championships, bringing her within two spots of her goal of being the youngest competitor on tour. She rips, she's smart, she's adorable, she plays the viola -- um, can we keep her? Click through to shop Rachael's look!
