Sterling Spencer finally apologizes to Gen Z surfers — but blames the algorithm. In this hilarious and brutally honest Pinch My Salt Podcast episode, Sterling and Cousin Ryan dive deep into the battle between core vs zesty surfing, authentic surf culture vs algorithm chasing, and the rise of Gen Z surfers doing it for the clip instead of the wave. From Sterling’s viral “Sorry Gen Z” song to full-blown discussions on surfing’s soul, vaping surfers, skate park clout, surf industry grifters, and why exposure doesn’t pay the bills, this one’s a must-watch for every surfer who’s ever wondered: is surfing still about the ocean—or the algorithm?

The boys also talk skimboarding fails, dad life lessons, gratitude, core surf legends like Joel Tudor, and how social media is mutating the next generation of surfers. Raw, funny, and painfully true, this episode captures the heart of what’s happening to surfing in 2025.

👉 Watch till the end for deep laughs, surf wisdom, and a reminder: Don’t lose your soul to the scroll.
