Saber first came to attention when she was nine, after a YouTube video of her landing a skate trick on a halfpipe went viral.
At the age of 11, she was selected as a wild card by surfing champion Sally Fitzgibbons to compete in The World Surf League Sydney International Women’s Pro Qualifying Series.
Before the game, the little legend took part in a side-splitting interview in which she called her dad “fat” and said she would spend her winnings on doughnuts, leaving host Karl Stefanovic and the Today Show team in the lurch.
