This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Zoe Verge-Depre and Esmee Bobner, one of the fastest rising teams in beach volleyball and Switzerland’s No. 2 team heading into the Paris Olympic Games. We recorded this episode with Kyle Friend as a co-host in Gstaad, home of Verge-Depre and Bobner and home to one of the most epic events on the volleyball calendar. We chat about:

Their rapid rise up through the ranks and into the Olympic Games

Why they never felt confident throughout the entire Olympic race

What it was like for Zoe to race against her sister, Anouk Verge-Depre, for the final spot in Paris

Why “doing you” even when it comes with making mistakes, is the best way to learn and grow on the Beach Pro Tour

That, and so much more. Super fun chat with Zoe and Esmee!

SHOOTS!
