00:20:00,240 When I was growing up, 420 00:20:00,241 --> 00:20:05,203 surfing wasn't a sport where a lot of women could practice. 421 00:20:05,204 --> 00:20:08,999 So I've always competed against boys, 422 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,793 and I think that's why I became so competitive. 423 00:20:11,794 --> 00:20:15,047 I never felt intimidated by men. 424 00:20:15,048 --> 00:20:17,467 I knew I was as strong as them. 425 00:20:18,176 --> 00:20:19,843 The first competition 426 00:20:19,844 --> 00:20:23,931 that made me realize that I wanted it was when I was 13. 427 00:20:23,932 --> 00:20:26,224 It was the Junior in Brazil, 428 00:20:26,225 --> 00:20:29,061 and I competed, and I won. 429 00:20:29,062 --> 00:20:32,481 And if you won that contest, you were South American Champion.
