Surfing in the Championships

In the latest “Break Room” episode of the podcast, host Dave Prodan speaks with a panel of fellow WSL employees that work across the league. Get insights from inside headquarters on the Championship Tour’s “offseason,” the Challenger Series, and WSL PURE’s We Are One Ocean petition. To start, the crew describes what they’ve been working on since the World Champions were crowned at Lower Trestles, how the offseason is getting more packed than ever, and the fast-approaching start to the 2022 season. They discuss all things Challenger Series, break down the France and Portugal events, pick out their favorite moments so far, and make some predictions for the event at Haleiwa that will decide next year’s class of CT surfers. They then talk about WSL PURE and what the league has done in the conservation and sustainability spaces over the past season, the We Are One Ocean petition and campaign, and the upcoming takeover of the UN Biodiversity social accounts. Then as always, the Break Room answers a wide array of listener questions spanning topics such as Julian Wilson’s future on tour, big 2022 predictions, mental health in surfing, the Metaverse, and equal pay.
