Pipeline, Beating Kelly at Teahupo'o, & Trash Talking During Heats with Jack Freestone

Episode 52

Championship Tour surfer and Hydro Flask athlete Jack Freestone joins the podcast just before the start of the season to talk about being an Australian transplant in Hawaii, the pecking order out in the lineup there, and his thoughts on starting the tour at Pipeline. He looks back at his early career, from winning two Junior Championships, to sponsor bidding wars, to finally cracking the code on the CT. He also touches on overcoming the fear at Teahupo'o, competing against greats like Kelly Slater, and talking trash to competitors in the water.
