This summer, 19 year old, pro-surfer Erin Brooks, from Canada won three consecutive events —Tahiti, Fiji and Treslets (California) — of the 2026 Championship Tour. So you know, the last person to accomplish this feat was Stephanie Gilmore in 2008. For context, Erin Brooks is the 2nd women to do this and the first in almost 20 years. This three-peat certifiably cements Erin Brooks as a dominant pro-surfer and a female athlete to watch out for.

What makes Brooks' summer run even more remarkable is where her season started. At the beginning of the year, she was fighting to re-qualify on the tour. Through relentless work, tactical precision, and taking down world champions along the way, she completely flipped the script—jumping up the rankings to secure her place as World No. 5. Her ascent proves what happens when raw talent meets unwavering trust in the process.

Brooks’s historic summer isn't just a personal victory; it’s a powerful statement to the next generation of girls dropping into waves. Everyone is paying attention now. LFG.
