Carissa Moore has proved again what a badass she is.

While surfing overhead J-Bay in the Corona Open today, Moore snapped her board and swam in and got a new one.

She still managed to advance into the next round. We're impressed.

The WSL captioned the clip above:

"Not even a broken board can stop 5x World Champ @rissmoore10 as she moves onto the Quarterfinals!"

In the video, the first-ever female Olympic surfing gold medalist goes frontside on an overhead right and gets barreled, scoring an 8.50 from the judges.

She competed against France's Johanne Defay in Heat 1 of the elimination round.

The surfers were judged on their best two scores. Moore's best waves were scored 7.77 and 8.50, totaling a winning 16.27 points. Meanwhile defeated Defay scored 6.83 and 6.80, totaling 13.63 points.

As usual, viewers minds were blown and they praised her in the vid's comments.

Here's some of the words of support for Moore:

"She would smoke 90 percent of the men"

"Only an 8.5 😮?"

"She surfed like she was pissed off 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽"

"My role model for life 👏👏👏 always pushing herself go sis @rissmoore10"

"That’s why she’s one of my heroes ❤️☀️ Go Riss"

"She’s a bloody beast!!!!"

"Jesus, give her the ten!!!"

"She’s the best 🔥"
