Sally Fitzgibbons: "I’ve already mind-surfed all my heats all the way to the final."

Written By Aaron Hughes

This week's episode is a banger. We have our very first guest joining for the main discussion and it's none other than one of our all time favorite humans, the GOAT of consistency, Sally Fitzgibbons.

Coming off an incredible year, filled with many highs and its fair share of lows, Sal takes us over the ledge at Pipe, up to the heavens in El Salvador and straight into the Olympic locker room, all after mind-surfing our way with her through the Rip Curl WSL Finals. It was an absolute joy for us and we have no doubt you'll feel the same way.

We hit the Hot Topics hard with a big decision for Bronte Macauley, the triumphant return of the CT's previous generation and the next generation's new hero, Scarlett Rennie, before catching up in a Post-Heat with South African Longboard Champ Tarryn King and finally we introduce our new segment dedicated entirely to the QS, The Grind with Jess Grimwood.
