Episode 90 - How To Lose Two World Champs Ion 5 Days. The Insiders Take.
Maybe its pretty impressive that the surf brands and WSL seem to be making the entire core surf universe hate them more and more each day... who knows.
We chat Steph Gilmore, Carissa Moore, Lisa Anderson and more!
Mixed with some chat about the WSL at Pipe, we focus on why these brands might make these decisions and why two of the best ever are stepping away from wearing competition rash vest.
Lets hope Steph just free surfs, makes one of the best edits ever and never looks back and lets also hope Carissa goes on a wild tear and gets that smile back!
Tune in, share with friends and enjoy!
