Just a guess, but I believe the answer is potentially yes ...as far as womens pro surfing goes. I guess it depends on her big wave (10' plus) "skill set"

Watched a video on Youtube. She seems to surf a lot like slater when he was young. That being said, there are a ton of girls that rip these days.

Caroline has more potential than anyone I've seen in a long time.
Could def dominate Women's Pro when she's ready.

............................ I think her surfing in this vid and her record breaking heat surfing is something to take note of. Plus calm under pressure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKfOzBe7ol8

After seeing her surf in person on several occasions, i believe if she doesn't get side tracked by injury or other distraction she will be world champion some day!! Awesome talent with a great humble attitude!!! imho

Caroline rips, just the other day free surfing I watched her outperform her peers in Tommy Coleman and Blake Spear. With that said, aside from the obvious things that side track athletes such as "injury and distractions". At the end of the day Caroline is a female athlete and with that come the physical changes that all boys and girls must go through and cannot be avoided. Until then, girls and boys do not differ significantly in most measurements of body size, composition and physiological responses to exercise, although there is great individual variation. This in itself, can have a huge bearing on athletic performance both physically and psychologically, especially as the majority of competition is based on the age of the athletes and not their stage of development. The female body composition will begin to change markedly. In addition the onset female physical changes, girls will go through emotional changes as well......to what degree the changes Caroline will face as she goes through puberty no one knows. But until she starts and finishes puberty all this "The Next Slater or Future World Title" talk is rather pointless and silly, however I am sure it makes her parents, family and friends feel very proud and they should be! This is not an attempt in taking anything away from female athletes, Caroline or her accomplishments....in fact her future looks very bright and she will continue to have a great deal of success!!
