Textured Waves is a collective of Black female surfers dedicated to inviting women of color and individuals from other underrepresented demographics into the water.
"My surfing journey is tied very closely to natural hair journey and my acceptance of my beauty as it was meant to be," Martina Duran says. "When I let my hair become natural, it became less of a factor." This story of sisterhood and acceptance was made and launched on the ADIDAS CONFIRMED app.
