• Episode 78: The Lineup Collab: The Undeniable Progression of Women's Surfing

  In a first for The Double-Up, The Lineup reached out with the opportunity to join in on a special collab epsiode to discuss the current state of women's surfing. Never ones to pass up an opportunity to dig in deep on their favorite subject, Shan and Rach joined Lineup host Dave Prodan for a conversation that spanned topics from moving beyond an era where the highest compliment a woman could receive was that she surfs like a man, to the role of media in covering women's sports. They also discuss whether pursuing a career in surfing is a smart choice for women in 2025 and why the Caity-Molly rivalry is arguably the most important storyline in professional surfing right now - along with plenty more.Go DeeperFollow: The Lineup with Dave ProdanInfoMusic: Dry Grass, courtesy of Body TypeContact: [email protected]: @the.double.upWeb: www.womensurf.net
