  • Letting go of Ego = higher performance
    Jul 9 2024

    This weeks intro we talk about how powerful ego is in surfing - in what we post on social media, how we perceive other surfers in the lineup and how we perceive our own performance in front of “better surfers”.

    Will goes onto talk about recent surf sessions on the north coast and how in love with the FireWire seaside he is! He goes onto say “there’s no better surfboard for progressing your rail surfing on open face walls”

    After mindfulness breath work, Liam goes onto talk about how we can cultivate more contentment in our lives through gratitude awareness - especially for the health we have in any given moment.

    In mind body stoke, Will goes on to share recent surfing gains coming from eating cleaner than usual on his weekend trip and how much more fun he had in the lineup!

    Liam talks about his up coming paddling event and how the extra effort on training & nutrition he’s been putting in has made him feel over all.

    Stay stoked!

  • Staying stoked (when you can’t surf)
    Jun 25 2024

    This weeks intro is a mix of emotional triggers on crowds, chat about free stuff we got given (from a golf company!) and how we’ve been staying stoked despite the recent flat spell.

    The conversation goes into talk about why surfing gives us such a huge boost in stoke - that flow experience of zero thoughts about the past or future, just present joy.

    We go onto talk about the evolving surfer who develops as much stoke on land as in the sea - through taking on challenges and seeking new flow based horizons.

    In mind, body, stoke, Will talks about recent upgrades in his meditation programme - basically doing more, more often (and reaping huge rewards).

    Liam discusses how there is no “right time” to take care of yourself and how good he’s felt lately giving himself more time to ocean paddle, play golf and take on less to recover and feel better for taking on challenges.

    Stay stoked guys! Will & Liam

  • Wetsuits, Wokism, Weaknesses & Weights
    Jun 4 2024

    This weeks intro, the boys go in deep on wetsuit reviewing - the ones that we love and the ones we do not (over a 20 year surf career there have been a LOT of different suits!).

    We then go onto talk about surf brands and how woke a lot of them are trying to be - pushing a silly unconscious message of “what we’re doing to the planet from buying x or y”. And rather than brands go down that road, more just offer what they offer without hypocrisy or negativity.

    Conversation then goes onto how distract-able our minds can be and teaches the “focus meditation” - in how when we focus entirely on being present it aids every area of our lives and in particular - activities that require better focus like surfing!!!

    In mind, body, stoke, Will talks about working on his ultimate weakness - his snap! Then utilising “exercise snacking” and getting the noticeable benefits for snapping onto his surfboard.

    Liam shares how he’s working on his “weak point” - his legs and his recent training on his legs has made a huge difference to his cutbacks!

    Stay stoked guys!
