JC: What has been the highlight of your career to date?
DAIDA: The highlight of my career to date is winning my battle with cancer and being able to continue with the sport that I love.
IBALLA: I think this year has been very good for me. Winning the Aloha Classic, The PWA Tour and also, without doing all the events on tour, I managed to finish 4th in the SUWT (Stand Up World Tour), also 4th at the ISA SUP World Championships, Vice European SUP Surfing Champion and Spanish SUP Champion, 2013 was a similar year! So I think these last two years have been a great challenge for me and I am happy I was able to do this proving we are not retiring and are stronger than ever.
JC: Have you both ever had a big argument?
DAIDA: Like all brothers and sisters do in this world… We are two different people and we think differently about many aspects of life, sometimes it’s just a question of accepting each other.
IBALLA: We are sisters, twins, yes we argue but normal things! I guess it is what you expect after doing the same thing all our lives!
JC: Have you ever played twin style tricks on people or boyfriends in the past?
DAIDA: We did a few times at school ‘hee hee’, but nothing too serious! Iballa wanted me to do her driver’s licence exam, but I couldn’t do it, I was too scared !
IBALLA: Yes, the typical jokes! But I always promised to show my ID before anything happened! Once we exchanged boyfriends as a joke that was funny. Also in school we played a few tricks, the teachers didn’t know we were the other twin and the whole class did, our classmates were laughing all the time.
