Hey Zuz, I'm confused: I don't like surfing without a coach
13/03/2026 | 3 mins.
In the final daily episode of The Wipeout Weekly, we tackle a question many surfers secretly wonder about: is it weird if you don't like surfing alone? We talk about the rise of surf coaching, why some surfers thrive with an instructor in the water, and why learning in a group might actually make surfing less intimidating—and more fun. Plus, after 365 consecutive daily episodes, we announce what's coming next.
Surf news roundup: Surfer drifts off Bali. Munich surfers fight back. No Eddie this year.
12/03/2026 | 4 mins.
Surf news this week is pretty varied. A surfer drifts at sea for 20 hours off Bali before a fisherman spots him, Munich surfers try to resurrect their famous Eisbach river wave, The Eddie big-wave contest won't run this season after Waimea fails to deliver 40-foot surf.
The Toronto surfer who took up surfing at 62
11/03/2026 | 4 mins.
Kim is a 66-year-old surfer from Toronto who decided to seriously pursue surfing at 62. In this episode, this is KIm's story about learning later in life, navigating fear in the water, chasing tiny green waves from Lake Ontario to Costa Rica, and why surfing—even once a year—has completely captured her imagination.
The purest form of surfing none of us practices anymore
10/03/2026 | 4 mins.
Before surfboards, there was bodysurfing—riding waves using nothing but your body as the planing surface. In this episode we explore what many Hawaiian watermen consider the purest form of wave riding, one that even Duke Kahanamoku reportedly preferred to board surfing.
Swell vs surf weight—explained once and for all
09/03/2026 | 4 mins.
In this episode we tackle one of the most confusing things in surfing forecasts: the difference between swell height and surf height. These two numbers get mixed up all the time—even though they're measured in completely different places. We explain what swell height actually represents out in the open ocean, how waves transform as they approach the coastline, and why the number you see in your surf forecasting app doesn't always match what's breaking at your local beach.
