Ain't That Swell

***WARNING: This episode contains drug references, coarse language, adult themes, and the airing of several core lord beefs. Listener discretion is advised.*** Ain’t That Swell’s inaugural LIVE tour gets underway at the Wickham Hotel smack bang in the blue collar nirvana that is Newcastle. Surf towns don’t come more rugged and steeped in core lineage than the home of the twin fin aka the Steel City. Who better to guide us through the generations of stacked surfing talent than the Merewether madman himself, Matthew Hoy. He is joined by Margaret River prodigy and punk afficianado, Creedence Mctaggart, as well as the great Cenny Coast core lord, tube pig, slab specialist, firemen-family man, Justen ‘Jughead’ Allport.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You’ll get the inside word on from Richie on surfing’s most contentious calls, including the Robbo/Zeke Lau Sunset Final fracas, Floatergate with Suzy and Big O, and of course, Medina defeating Fanning in the semis at Pipe in 2015 with twirly whirly-to-layback in the pow pow robbing White Lightning of a fourth World Crown. How does he sleep at night?! Also, joining us is pro surfing’s ultimate good guy Glyndyn Ringrose, a CT competitor, shaper, coach and ski driver who threaded one of the more remarkable 10 point rides in surfing history. And rounding out our guest list is local lunatic Sandy Ryan, a bloke who has taken on the heaviest slabs in Australia in maxed out conditions and who still reckons it’s a hard task to die!

Tour at Ulladulla Ex-Servos. Yes, what a time to be alive as we sat there in a room of absolute hell men and core women sharing tales of the Jack McCoy epic 9 Lives, of great rides and terrifying wipeouts, of amazing surfers and even better surfboards, of the career highs and lows so far of Occy, Kirk and Russ Bierke, Mark Rabbidge and the Swellian Queen herself Pam Burridge.
