Girls Can’t Surf: The Untold Story

Girls Can’t Surf: The Untold Story

The untold story of how a band of renegade surfer girls in the 1980s fought to create their own professional sport, changing surf culture forever.

#GirlsCantSurf is coming to Australian cinemas March, 2021: http://mad.mn/girlscantsurf It’s the 1980s and the world of professional surfing is a circus of fluoro colours, peroxide hair and radical male egos. GIRLS CAN’T SURF follows the journey of a band of renegade surfers who took on the male-dominated professional surfing world to achieve equality and change the sport forever. Featuring surfing greats Jodie Cooper, Frieda Zamba, Pauline Menczer, Lisa Andersen, Pam Burridge, Wendy Botha, Layne Beachley and more, GIRLS CAN’T SURF is a wild ride of clashing personalities, sexism, adventure and heartbreak, with each woman fighting against the odds to make their dreams of competing a reality.

Kelly Slater Synced – Uluwatu

Kelly Slater Synced – Uluwatu

Kelly had been surfing Uluwatu quite a lot throughout his visit, but he looked particularly in sync with Bali’s most consistent break during this session back in November. He caught a bunch of waves and was surfing with plenty of speed, attacking the lip and landing most of his moves. If his form in this clip is anything to go by, he should do well at the high performance friendly locations on this years CT.

SoCal Lights Up

SoCal Lights Up

A perfect two day swell that hit the South Bay, in SoCal. It wasn’t all about Mavericks this time; the whole coast lit up! Tierra del Martillo is a local swell that may only exists 1-2 times a year in Southern California. Black Line was there on Dec 8-9 to witness and bring it to you (when everyone else was focused on the big wave spots).
