Early life

Sabre Elle Norris was born in Newcastle, New South Wales on 3 January 2005 to Australian Olympic butterfly and individual medley swimmer and singer, Justin Norris, and his wife Brooke Norris.[3] Sabre is the eldest of 6 children, having 2 brothers and 3 sisters, Cerrus (Sockie), Coda (Biggy), Naz, Disco and Charm.

Norris was diagnosed with a Chiari malformation in 2018 which caused her to end skating professionally.[4][5][6]

In 2016, at 11 years old, Norris was the second youngest surfer ever to compete in the open round of the Sydney International Women's Pro.[7][8] Her 4 November 2016 interview with Karl Stefanovic on Australia's Channel Nine's The Today Show received over 2 million views,[9] leading to an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show[10][11] which was viewed 40 million times.[12]

She was the third female in history and first Australian female to land a "540".[13]

In 2018, she won a bronze medal in skateboarding at the X Games (becoming the first woman to land a McTwist on a skateboard at an X Games),[14][15] won the Bondi Bowl-A-Rama,[16] and finished in second place in the Vans Park Series Oceania Championships.[17] In 2019, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Fierce Girls biographical podcast series released an episode about Norris titled Sabre Norris — the girl who shreds waves and skate parks.[18]

In 2021, she appeared in the documentary film Tall Poppy: A Skater's Story, about 21-year-old Australian skateboarder Poppy Starr Olsen.[19]
