Honoured to be joined by Nick Hounsfield, founder of The Wave in Bristol, the UK's first Wavegarden inland surfing lagoon.

We discussed many things, from his history of surfing leading him down this wild ride of creating a wave pool in the UK, to using The Wave not just as a place for people to enjoy something fun, but to create a place for people to spend time in an environment they're not used to.

We chatted about the idea of water being healing for people suffering from mental issues, the idea that getting out on the water makes you feel better, I know I certainly feel much calmer after I've got a session in. Theres some really fascinating stuff on this topic that I can't wait to check out more of.

Finally we touched on Nick suffering from a stroke and how his outlook has changed, why he wants a wave pool in every city in the UK, why we should be more like our dogs and why Jordy Smith was way more stoked to plant a tree than get barrelled!
