Cassidy started surfing in Ventnor, New Jersey standing up on a boogie board at age 5, then was given her first surfboard at age 9. Cassidy began competing at age 11 in the Eastern Surf Association (ESA) and the National Scholastics Surfing Association (NSSA). Throughout her younger years Cassidy surfed many events over the years consistently placing in the finals. Cassidy’s years of experience landed her winning as Belmar Pro Women’s champ 4X. 2018 Sea Hear Now Festival Women’s Expression Session Champ, New Jersey Surfing Hall of Fame Female Surfer of the Year 2X. 1st Woman to win Open Shortboard (male and female of all ages) at ESA Northeast Regional’s 2 years in a row, and ECSC Women’s champ 2016. Cassidy now has joined some of the Women’s World Qualifying Series Events.
Cassidy enjoys traveling and surfing in various spots around the world from Costa Rica to Australia, but sometimes home is her favorite best spot. In 2018 the East Coast Hurricane season provided super fun and consistent surf. The best is when winter rolls around for Cassidy. Winter is when Cassidy enjoys so many fun sessions with just friends sharing a firing peak with no one else out! Nothing beats rolling up to a spot and paddling out in the snow!
