Stab Podcast: Did Kelly Ruin Getting Old & Fat And Being Okay With It? Is Winning SITD A Shaper’s World Title?

‘Shapers should be taking anabolic steroids to make perfect surfboards’.

// Mar 20, 2022
Words by Ethan Davis
Reading Time: < 1 minute

The world’s best visually-impaired surf podcast delivers you your weekly dose of snews (surf news). 

In this week’s episode we go inside the SITD premiere, Britt’s winning ecstasy, and complex shaper dynamics. Danny and Buck speculate when Gabby will return (again), the role of surfboard-fin pairings, and why male CT surfers keep quitting. Finally, the boys discuss why Benji Weatherley is a national treasure, how a disarmed Kelly is the best Kelly, and suitable penance for our surf-sinner tipping the cosmic scales in favor of Filipe Toledo against Ivan Florence in the Pipe CT event.
