JC: Who are your biggest rivals and why?
DAIDA: Myself, because when I think negative thoughts my head does not work properly !. It is up to me to walk away from those thoughts and be positive and to always have fun in the water.
IBALLA: I guess Daida is my biggest rival and at the same time my biggest supporter. There are lots of girls coming in the waves who are very strong and motivated and it is the same in the other disciplines so it is great to see that!
JC: You are stranded on a desert island, you can have three people aside from your sister, three personal items, one board, one sail, one book, one movie and one TV series to watch…make your choices!
DAIDA: My boyfriend, my friends Tamara and David. Shower gel, sunscreen and sunglasses. Board and sail, the 79 L. Starboard Quad and a 4.7 Severne Blade! My book would be Black Beauty, Movie Invincible and TV series Game of Thrones!
IBALLA: Stefan Etienne, Nicole Boronat and Scott McKercher. A 69 L. Starboard Quad and 4.7 Severne Blade. My three items would be a SUP (with paddle) or surf board, a survival guide and sunglasses, my
book – 50 shades of grey, the latest movie from Angelina Jolie and TV series Homeland!
JC: Who has inspired you in your life and why?
DAIDA: My mum, she was a true fighter in life. She raised five kids with almost no money and always with a big smile on her face.
IBALLA: Daida; for the way she fights for things in life.
JC: What makes you angry?
DAIDA: People who have opinions about me without ever having a conversation with me!
IBALLA: People´s hate!
JC: What do you worry about, and why?
