The Inertia

Caroline Marks, preheat.

Caroline Marks, preheat.

Caroline Marks is 11-years-old. She’s also the youngest girl to ever make the USA Surf Team. Hailing from Melbourne Beach, Florida, the goofy-footed youngster comes from a family of surfers, including her brother Luke, who’s been winning contests pretty much since he stepped on a surfboard.

“I just like the ocean and surfing,” Caroline says. “I don’t know how to explain it.” Just last week, Caroline took home wins in the Girls’ U16, U14, and U12 categories at the 2013 ASF Championships.

With a back-hand crack like that at age eleven, Caroline will be someone to watch as she comes up through the rankings.
