WSL commentator Joe Turpel talks with four-time World Champion Carissa Moore during their 14-day quarantine before the Australian leg of the Championship Tour. Carissa talks about the female surfers who have inspired her across her career, from past icons like Lisa Andersen and Megan Abubo to the next generation of young women who charge like Sierra Kerr and Kirra Pinkerton. She describes how she’s preparing for the new-look Australian events and details how she’s taking care of herself in quarantine. She discusses competing in pressure-filled events at waves of consequence like Teahupo’o and Pipeline before revealing which competitor she would want to face in the deciding surf-off at the Rip Curl WSL Finals.
