Presented by Rogue Wave Brewing

Join Jimmy & Cahill as they dive into the 2018 WCT year including a full wrap on the Billabong Pipe Masters and Gabriel Medina's World Title.

What do the boy's think was heat of the year?  What was the event of the year and why did Wilko and Connor O'Leary fall off tour.

We are then joined by Jack Freestone who will rejoin the WCT in 2019 after a huge year.  

In 2018 Jack chased the WQS while welcoming a son to the world and he talks openly and honestly about the massive changes and challenges that being a Dad brought.

Funny & honest it's a late contender for interview of the year.

Our last episode for 2018 is so surf it hurts and as always is fuelled by Salt Lager.

Thanks to everyone for listening and we will see you in 2019!

Ted Grambeau is one of the most acclaimed photographers in surfing, on hand to capture some of the most iconic moments in the history of our sport.

His passion for adventure and travel made him a perfect fit for the Rip Curl Search and in this episode we dive deep into some of Tom Curren's amazing waves on the early trips.

His longevity and continued relevance have also allowed him to capture multiple generations of surfers from Curren to Slater to Fanning and now to Medina, he offers rare insights into the moments that shaped these surfers.

Well known as one of the true gentlemen of the sport, Ted fits that description perfectly.

A fascinating insight into a lifelong journey following his passion.
