Stab Podcast: JJF’s Favorite Feeling On A Surfboard, & One Of Our Favorite Articles To Date On The Topic Of ‘Birding’

In this week’s pod we discuss…

Surfboard inflation, the Stranger Things x Quiksilver collab, John Florence’s fine grain analysis of his favourite feelings in surfing (and his role in three upcoming Stab projects), Caity Simmers’ raw Snapper-winning instinct, and suitable penance for being an unreliable surf reporter. We also talk about Paul Evans’ article on the topic of bird watching and how/why it is our sport’s most complementary hobby.
