In a first-of-its-kind guessing game, Stace and Mike speculate the seating chart of the WSL's private flight to Australia (ex: If Gabby and his wife are in business, where's Charlie?). They also discuss Kelly pulling out (and why he's not faking it), Caroline's positive covid test, and whether or not Italo Ferreira can survive 14 days in a hotel room after his recent Red Bull sponsorship.

Surf exhibitionist Felicity Palmateer joins Danny J for a chat about her new film, "Skin Deep", which is now playing on Stab Premium. She discusses an ultimatum placed upon her by then-sponsors, and why she finally decided to release the film. We also hear from Ali Klinkenberg, a Stab writer who recently penned a tale about the inimitable Pauline Menczer, with whom he shares a childhood illness.

This week Danny chats to: 1. Filmmaker Joe G about his genre defining surf films 2. Ashton Goggans about Stab's new film Andy Irons And The Radicals.

You asked for it.

Jacob Willcox placed second at Surf100 Western Australia. Could it have been first if he dragged slightly less corn? Let's find out.

Surf100 North Point is wrapped, and perhaps unsurprisingly, the local phenom and recent QS graduate Jack ‘Three-Hundo’ Robinson has won. The results were decided by you—the thousands who judged the event live from their homes. And one of you, a cat named Cam Stedman, won three spankin’ new Arakawa blades for his efforts. Congrats, Cam. If you missed it, check out Surf100.tv now.
