Episode 205 - Have we not learnt from our lessons?

We may have got in trouble before, and we may have done it again. You'll have to listen to hear why, and if you hear it, DM us and tell us. 

Other than that, we bring you trestles talk & EAST opinions. 

We give our opinions on what will happen at Lowers over the next week or so when the WSL hit's town for a regular season event for this first time in a while. See if you agree with our thoughts, picks and more! 

Alongside this, we discuss episode two of EAST from STAB. Our opinions on episode one caused issues, we think episode two we are more safe... 

Some amazing boards, crazy set ups, great surfing and bad waves. We love it.

Episode 204 - Fijian Thoughts - A Review On What Has Just Happened. 

Another comp done, and another pretty decent one for the WSL. Yes, the lay days in the middle are annoying but Cloudbreak pumped and finals day and the days before were pretty special.

We saw goofy foot domination, 10's that were 12's, big names fall early and Yoyo become everyone's new favourite surfer!

We also discuss what is to come of the year and how we are gearing up to finish the year too!

Tune in, send us what you think and share!

Episode 202 - Is Your Favourite Surf A Bit Of A Dick? BIG EPISODE!

Huge week for surfing. New Electric Acid Surfboard Test from STAB, starring Harry Bryant and some of your favourite shapers, the WSL heading to Fiji for the next stop and new John John Florence dropping too! We discuss it all. 

EAST first - Have you seen it? It's a great start, but pretty average waves, even less average sprays on the board and maybe we all discovered one of our favourite surfers is a bit of a dick too? What did you think?

After this we chat about Fiji, make some predictions and chat about the forecast, it should be a SICK event if the waves show up. 

Last but not least, John John dropped a short YouTube clip that looked like our dreams. The most amazing life and incredible surfing in stunning waves! 

Let us know what you think of it all. 

Share, enjoy and subscribe.

Episode 201 - OUR FIRST LIVE EPISODE WITH THE NATIONAL CHAMPS! 

Live from the UK Surf & Skate Expo in June, Matt was invited to host a chat with the latest national champs, Fynn Gillespie and Belle Betteridge. 

Talking all aspect of surfing, from their winter season and prep heading into nationals, to feelings on finals day, the joy after winning and what's happened since. 

We speak quite deeply about the boards ridden by both champions, which are UK made and designed, Skindog Surfboards, and how the confidence in elite equipment helped take both surfers to their win's. 

We also chat about free surfing, the influencer of both brother's, sponsorship, relationships with social media and more! 

This one is different from our normal but was extremely fun. Big thanks to champs.

Episode 200 - Chargers Take Chopes. Tahiti Delivers Again. 

Not calling this comp of the year, as Snapper still holds that for now, but Tahiti once again delivers drama, sick waves, hell barrels and truth.

Tune in to listen as we break down the waves, some of the best scores, finals day drama, the GOAT's performance and we clash on Jack Robinson and his actions. 

We saw some surprise highlights on the women's side and pretty much every male stood up, there is always the one who doesn't - You know who! 

What did you think of the event? Let us know.

Listen in, share with mates and enjoy.

Episode 199 - What's Going On At The End Of The Road!

Yes we are dropping this podcast after 2 days of competition but that's fineee. The first two days have given us a lot to talk about.

We have seen some mental tubes, some wild conditions and one terrible priority call from the judges. 

Alongside this, we discussed the latest Natural Selection comp, Paul Evan's masterpiece on STAB and more!
