The Tour doesn't sleep, so neither do we. 

Stace G and Mikey C are back to break down the upcoming CT event at Punta Roca — forecast, favorites, and our betonline picks. 

Also in this ep, we break down the rumored location of the 2025 WSL Finals, plus two additions to the '25 Tour.

Tahiti Swell In-Bound, El Sal To Cook!

Tahiti goes OFF! 

Stace G and Mikey C break down the Tahiti Pro, including Italo's win, JJF's loss, Gab's bloody rig, and the women's meteoric ascension.

A hungover Stacey G is feeling particularly goatish about Tahiti, picking the 52-year-old soon-to-be-daddy (again) to win the event outright in our Teahupo'o preview (which starts around the 30-min mark). 

Before all that, Buck and Mikey C chat this week's surf news, including which song and surfer YOU think made for the best film section pairing of all time — the boys are both dumbfounded by the answer.

Slide on your turtle neck, let's drop in!
