Today we chat with Leah Dawson, a style icon in surfing. Leah has lived through incredible growth in women’s surfing, confronting many challenges of her own in the industry while also bringing a unique perspective to the sport. In this episode we learn about how Leah’s philosophy of surfing and style has changed throughout life, different techniques Leah teaches in women’s surfing, and Leah’s goal to promote storytelling, social justice, and different interpretations of what surfing can be. Ultimately, Leah teaches us how we can all enjoy surfing more and relieve ourselves of pressure and expectations in the water.
