Unlike most of her rivals who grew up the perma sunshine of Hawaii and Australia, Quincy Davis hails from the Big Apple – New York. Though growing up in the millionaires playground of the Hamptons can’t have been tough either.

She began competing in local contests at an early age beating boys twice her age with ease. Quincy has since graduated to a starring role in the Volcom team and she collaborates with the brand to design clothing collections which she also models.

As well as nailing the East Coast swells she also spends time in Puerto Rico and describes her secret talent as dancing video games.
