Stab Podcast: “It Doesn’t Cost $20K” Ft Sam McIntosh

In this week’s ep of The Drop, Stab co-founder Sam McIntosh explains why the Vans Pipe Masters has no “official” webcast, live from the North Shore of Oahu — along with competition updates and a potential finals day call.

Sam and Mikey C also dissect recent surf industry news, with ABG pulling its North American Volcom/Bong/RVCA/Quik licenses from Liberated Brands, potentially sinking Liberated in the process. How will this affect pro surfers, lineups, and the culture at large?

Finally, we reveal the top 10 surfboard brands and 10 of the most magic boards on the market today, according to the Stab audience.
