Can A Professional “Freesurfer” By Nature Not Be Competitive?

Stab says no. Chippa Wilson disagrees.

The Stab High hype train is leaving the station!

In a little over three weeks our favorite show in surf, and we may be a little biased, returns to Waco. Great surfing, better vibes. Ice cold booze in the dry Texan heat. Tipsy attendees getting buck wild, security guard wrasslin’, and more air time than network television.

Everyone’s favorite tattooed redhead Aussie levitator is coming back to put on a show. He doesn’t care if he wins. He just wants to blow up. Which he will. Which means he could take the win.

How convenient for Mr. Wilson.

Catch Chippa playing pool while talkin’ pools, competitive drive, free-surf business schedules, putting new hammers to bed, and not quite regretting last year’s overindulgence.

Lucky boys and girls better get to buying tickets! 2018 was unreal, but 2019’s got it beat in the shade.

Get your tickets here.
