The US will expect to win the women’s surfing title with the likes of Olympic champion Carissa Moore and world champion Caroline Marks on the team, but watch out for Brazil’s Tatiana Weston-Webb, Costa Rica’s Brisa Hennessy and France’s Vahine Fierro, who used to live in Tahiti and trains there.

After days of barreling along the huge waves of Tahiti’s island paradise, French Polynesian surfer Vahine Fierro has even more reason to look forward to this summer’s Olympics.

The other is Vahine Fierro in the women’s competition.

Changues took this as an opportunity to challenge stereotypes about the “vahine,” or Polynesian woman.

Released in the U.S. last month, her two patterns, Aruhine and Pareu, offer a new vision of vahine identity.
