Listen Later

A life lesson he learnt as a child, saved his life as an adult. 

With his fearless spirit and unbelievable drive, Owen Wright has carved his name into  surfing history, with WSL championship tour event wins and Australia's first ever Olympic medal in surfing. From the depths of adversity to the pinnacle of triumph, Owen's journey is a testament to his spirit to overcome, inspire, and redefine his own limits.

Battling back from a life-threatening injury, this lifelong RipCurl athlete's resilience has become a beacon of hope for athletes worldwide. Join him as he shares the heart-pounding tales of his conquests, the relentless pursuit of excellence, and the thrill of riding nature's biggest waves. 

It is one of the best, most moving, powerful Howie Games episodes in history. 

Owen's book, Against the Water has just been released and is available now!
