In this episode Mel and Perry welcome Jersey's very own British and European surf champion, Arlene Maltman. Arlene shares her incredible story of being a female surfer in a male dominated sport.

Mel and Perry will talk about the heritage of surfing in Jersey, how the names of surf spots have become part of our intangible cultural heritage and how surfing has put Jersey on the map.

Arlene shares how people's attitudes to women in the sport has changed and how the industry supporting women surfing has developed.  She also shares her memories of Jersey as a European hotspot for surfing culture.

So grab your board and join Mel, Perry and Arlene for a surf through history.
