Melanie Bartels - ( no website but here's a little something-something we posted about Mel )

Melanie Bartels possesses innovative, out of left field, edge of your seat excitement. She is exactly what pushes women to get into the mix of out of the wave surfing. Nothing is more dangerous than someone like Mel who will release fins in sketchy sections, chop a massive hop, and just mix up real big maneuvers in and out of the crest of the wave. When she's on, she is ON and she will show up and, well… you guessed it, blow up! Her potential is through the roof! As a unsponsored surfer...wow, this industry is almost a joke.
