Happy Birthday, Barbara Kendall—the legendary wave-dancer and Olympic medal collector! From gold in 1992 to silver in '96, followed by bronze at the Sydney Olympics 2000—you clearly took "going with the wind" quite seriously. You've set a tough benchmark for every Kiwi athlete (and board sailor) who dares follow your wake.Even years after stepping down from competition waves, we look back fondly on your unbeatable spirit—and epic wipeouts—with timeless laughter and admiration. May life's breezes always be favorable—because let's face it: you've definitely earned smooth sailing from here!
Enjoy another adventure-filled spin around the sun!
