Smiv and Deadly are back for a good old fashioned mondo ear chew and the boys are on a Nate Florence-style heater as they discuss the middle Floz Bros insane run of global cones, the mind-boggling orb-fest that is Bong’s new shred flick Interlusion, the many health benefits of attending a flooded Swellnes Summit, and the mythical Great Sea Cocks possibly bringing our intrepid sailing heroes John Florence and Torren Martyn to an ungodly and untimely end.

There to report on Kelly Slater's 10th World Title win, Doherty suddenly found himself at the centre of the most shocking and tumultuous week in pro surfing history.

Mona Vale's Luke Stedman spent an incredible seven years on the elite ASP/WOZ World Championship Tour in an era that is still regarded as the toughest and most competitive in pro surfing history. Kicking off during the Irons/Slater war of 2003, he'd surf an astonishing six events before making his first heat, but once he'd run the sword through his childhood hero Kelly "Groovy Avalon" Slater at pumping J-Bay, he knew he was exactly where he deserved to be. Plenty to enjoy in this one, so get ya steaming Shanghai Sex on already!

We caught up with Haz the day after his surgeon gave him the all-clear to finally apply weight to the freshly mended pin hoping he'll be ready to represent all no-nonsense, you bewdy, true blue, ridgey-didge, dinky-di, fair dinkum fucken Strayans when the waiting period opens just eight weeks from today. Spoiler alert: OATH HE WILL!
