Stab Podcast: Your New Wetsuit Will Arrive Just In Time For Summer
Shipping delays, a peek inside Thai surfboard factories, and more wildcard drama.
There are an estimated 50-100k wetsuits just floating off the coast of Southern California…
In cargo containers, of course. Buck opens this week’s podcast with an update on the port traffic outside of Long Beach, which has left multiple wetsuit brands are struggling to get their inventory off the boat. If anyone has a jetski and a grappling hook, shoot me an email. I have an investment opportunity.
Jed Smith hops the pod again this week to discuss the state of affairs in Thai surfboard factories. Some of his findings were as expected, and others, not so much. The Swellian reveals all info from his trusted sources.
The fellas continue into our now updated wildcard fiasco. Zeke Lau has qualified for the world tour via the Challenger series, which leaves his ultimate surfer wildcard up for grabs. Should Koa Smith get them? Should the spots be awarded those next in line on the CS list? Should the WSL sell it on the deep web?
All of these options seem plausible.
The CUSP crew of Mikey and Stace hop on the mic to share their conflicting opinions on the topic and provide us with a recap following the Hossegor CS event.
Things they seem to enjoy:
- Beach breaks
- The current camaraderie leaking out of Australian Surfers
- Arguing about surfing
