Leaked: Yago Dora’s Stab High Sydney Home Video

A world champ’s side hustle.

There have been a few firsts in the time that’s elapsed since 2025 began.

Yago Dora became an official member of the vlogging community in March and won his first WSL title in September. No correlation here, we think.

Molly Picklum beat Caity Simmers 1v1 for the first time in 2025 and also won her first WSL world title. Correlation likely.

Stab High Sydney gave this year’s world champs a competitive encore while simultaneously demanding that other surfers, especially the ones who don’t dabble in competition, up their level and reignite the debate over whether the best aerial surfing is or isn’t done on tour.

The fact that Joel Vaughan and Sierra Kerr won the main event, while Yago took home the Monster Air award, could offer a hint.

In his 12th episode since March (how does he find the time?), Yago Dora brings us into his personal space and short stay in Sydney for a fly-in-the-pool-handrail perspective of the event.

PS: Great song pairing!
