We sat down with Connor O'leary with no agenda. Just a chat among mates that naturally ventured into some interesting topics within the surf world. We really enjoyed this one.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the recent Pipe Challenger Series event. We highlight in particular Australia’s dominance and why Callum's win was so well put together. We also discuss some sponsorship movements and have a quick look at the rankings heading into the final event at Merewether.

We jumped into the studio to review everything that has gone down so far in the Pipe Challenger Series event. We go over all the highlights, look at what's to come and touch on the challenging conditions that are forecast over the next week. #surfing #podcast #surfer #surf #wsl #pipe #hawaii

Sit back and let us run you through a hectic week of surfing. Raglan landed its very own Championship Tour event, John Florence hung up the leash (again), and the Pipe Challenger is about to fire with solid swell on the horizon. Tune in as we break down all the news and lock in our predictions for the event.

This episode kicks off with a conversation around the recent shark attacks on Australia’s east coast and the difficult, often uncomfortable question of how they should be addressed. From there, we shift gears and break down the WSL World Junior Titles, recapping standout performances and key moments from the event in the Philippines.

For this week’s episode, we caught up with Luke Thompson, who’s currently enjoying a career-best season on the Challenger Series.

We dive into his journey growing up in Durban, the emotions behind winning his home event in Ballito, and what it was like versing (and nearly beating) Jordy Smith at J-Bay. Luke also shares insights into mindset, pressure, and what it takes to keep progressing at the highest level.

We hope you enjoy this one as much as we did

The dribbliest of episodes to finish off the year. We run over all the latest surfing news, listen to our first ever song written for us, and finish off with a battle of the brains featuring Harry O'Brien and Keenan Crisp. We laughed a lot in this one.

Thankyou to everyone who has tuned in this year and helped us get off the ground! 2026 will be bigger and better!

In this episode, we’re joined by former WSL World Tour surfer and current Challenger Series competitor Jackson Baker. We dive into his journey growing up as a grom who was “winning everything,” before his world was turned upside down in 2016 with the loss of his mum to breast cancer. Jacko opens up about navigating that grief, the adversity that followed, and how he fought his way to the highest level of the sport. We also chat about where he’s at right now and his push to earn a spot back on the elite stage. Strap in, this one’s a doozy!

In this episode, we talk to a man who wears many hats. WSL and skate commentator, podcaster, journalist, and former editor in chief of Transworld Surf (just to name a few). We dig into the 14 year 'party' that was Transworld surf and why it came to an end. We also dive into his current role as part of the WSL's commentary team and pick his brains on the new schedule and format for 2026.
