How good do we have it? Gambling in 2025 is a dream. No more squinting at newspapers, second-guessing ‘experts’ with questionable financial incentives, or trusting the ol’ leaky gut of man.

Now, our horses trial the course in real-time, beamed straight to our screens.

Trusting experts is so passé! But also — click here to watch our expert, Skip Mucculoch, give his picks. If you fancy yourself a betting type (which, in 2025, you kind of have to be to make a dime), Skip’s worth a listen. Last year, he picked underground surfer John John Florence to win. Guess what happened? John John Florence won.

Here’s who Skip’s backing for Surf City El Salvador:

Men: Ethan Ewing, Yago Dora, Bryan Perez, Al Cleland
Women: Erin Brooks, Caity Simmers, Molly Picklum

If you’re the sort who distrusts reputable sources (very on-trend), then by all means, go rogue. Watch the warm-ups. Make your own calls.

Key highlights include: professional surfers fighting for their lives on the rocks. Oh, and Jake Marshall looks sharp. I’m no expert, so you can trust me.
