Annie Reickert (@Annie__starr) is a world class waterwoman from Maui. She surfs on the Big Wave World Tour and won the Red Bull Magnitude Tow Event. Annie is sponsored by Lift foils and dominates in all aspects of foiling.

If they made a Mt. Rushmore of influential Californian big-wave surfers, a couple names would probably come to mind off the bat. Peter Mel. Greg Long. Of course, four spots just isn’t fair, but the footprints of a lean, former pro surfer turned big-wave specialist from Laguna Beach nicknamed Snips loom large, indeed. From pivotal sessions at Todos Santos and Mav’s, to exploring and bagging world records at Cortes Bank, to barrels at Jaws…Snips has seen some things. In the newest episode of the Late Drop, Jamie Mitchell raps out with the man who deserves a face etched in stone. 0:00​ Wavepool talk, Growing up in Laguna Beach, CA, Surfing steep shorebreak, Amateur comp career, Trouble reading in school, Parents supporting his surfing career14:00​ Getting 2nd in US Championships, Traveling with NSSA national team, Getting into big wave surfing in Hawaii, Competing against the elements, Starting/selling VonZipper, Getting on the Billabong Oddysey team, 1998 Todos Santos session K2 Challenge29:11​ Teaming up with Brad Gerlach, Getting into surf forecasting with Sean Collins, Getting his pilot’s license37:02​ The Cortez Bank mission in 2001, Catches 66-foot wave that day, Going back to Cortez in 2008 with Twiggy and Greg Long, Catches 77-foot wave for world record46:56​ Relationship with Maverick’s, Mark Foo’s death at Mav’s, Watching out for friends while surfing big waves57:45​ Breaking his back, The Big Wave World Tour, Memorable big waves of his life, Watching Laird tow surfing at Jaws for the first time1:11:21​ Snip’s 5-to-Finish

We chat with Alex Gray about his career as a Professional Surfer, whether it was his early beginnings on the NSSA, as a competitive surfer chasing the WQS, competing on the Big Wave World Tour, or travelling the globe as a paid free surfer. Alex shares some of the challenges he's been through like the loss of his brother Chris, how Alex almost died himself, and how he's made a positive out of this for himself and others with things like his surf therapy and public speaking. Enjoy.

Back in the late ‘80s, there was a classic TV commercial running a lot about the anti-balding Hair Club for Men product. The big reveal at the end? The owner goes: “I’m not just the president of Hair Club for Men…I’m a client!” And in an odd way, this reminds us of Santa Cruz, California’s finest: Peter Mel. For some years, Peter Mel was not only the Commissioner of the WSL Big Wave World Tour…he was also a former BWWT world champion, Maverick’s event champion, “The Kill” Generation super-star…the list goes on. But clearly, at his core, Peter Mel is a big-wave fanatic and modern icon. In one of Jamie Mitchell’s all-time favorite episodes of the Late Drop, he and the Condor (because his wingspan) chat for a solid 95 minutes.

Much like druids, dervishes, and the secret castes of ancient alchemists…a man from Santa Cruz, California can be hard to pin down. The Fleas and Skindogs and keepers of the Lane often defy reason; are often unknowable. The Westside’s young Nic Lamb, a 2X Punta Galea winner and Mav’s event champion is bred in the same vein, but lucky for us, Jamie Mitchell pulled the stories and tales out of the man like a podcast sorcerer. “At the end of the day I’m just being me,” said Nic. “I’m doing me, I like to have fun, I like to go fast, I like to look good…and sometimes, I just like to wear a nice suit.” Amen, brother. 0:00: Intro, Growing up between Santa Cruz and South Africa, Santa Cruz’s surf culture/localism, Only the strong survive 9:17: Nic’s father, Junior lifeguarding, Getting into Mav’s, Surfing it at 14 years old, Competing in small waves simultaneously, 20:41: Starting the Big Wave World Tour, Winning Punta Galea twice back-to-back, Winning the Mav’s event, Jaws wave this past year 29:44: Finally getting invited to Mav’s event, Moving to L.A. to act, Doing it differently 38:48: Training routine, Dealing with injuries, Focus for upcoming big wave season, BWWT ideas and critiques 51:29: Nic’s 5-to-Finish Questions

Ever done the big wave trifecta? Jojo Roper has. Welcome to the sixth installment of the Late Drop Big Wave podcast.

New episodes will drop on Surfline each week — upcoming guests include Brian Keaulana, Peter Mel, Nic Lamb and others. Stay tuned here for more. Groomed on the shallow reef breaks and fickle slabs of La Jolla, San Diego -- and raised by hellman surfer-shaper dad, Joe Roper -- Jojo Roper is one of California’s most exciting, young big-wave exports. But when you’ve qualified for the Big Wave World Tour, and the world won’t let you export…what’s a man to do? In Jojo’s case? Train, dream, work in Pop’s shop, and in the newest episode of the Late Drop, reminisce about the good ‘ole days, in a different world, four months back.

When it comes to big-wave surfing, often, that urge isn’t something learned. It’s a hunger that reveals itself early. Take Russell Bierke, for example. Some years back, Kelly Slater was sampling some secret Aussie slab, struggling to figure out its steps and moods. A then-13-year-old Russell Bierke showed up to the session—and instantly had the wave dialed, “putting decades-worth of my experience to shame” as Slater described. Now, a fierce competitor on the Big Wave World Tour—owning it at Shipstern’s Bluff anytime the right [frightening] swell slips into that corner of Tazzy—Jamie Mitchell sat down with Mr. Bierke to talk about waves of consequence.0:00: Intro, COVID situation in Australia, Russell’s Dad’s story into big waves, Russell’s backstory/connections to Hawaii9:55: Russell growing up around his dad shaping, Getting into bigger waves as a kid bc of Dad, Local inspirations in big surf, Russell’s Underground crew, Big wave surfing culture on South Coast17:05: Hawaii trips and Victoria, Aus trips in big surf, Why there’s not a lot of well-known Aussies in big waves24:45: Russell’s wipeout in Jaws Comp, Russell’s favorite waves in Australia, Shippies, Paddling The Right, Dangers of The Right31:19: Success in big wave events, His best wave at Shippies, Pro surfing as a goal, Getting on Big Wave World Tour, O’Neill sponsorship40:40: The session with Kelly Slater, Gnarly wipeout/freak accident at secret big wave, Recovering from that session, Russell’s training routine55:15: Dad as his shaper, Positioning at Jaws, What he rides at Jaws, Nazare session/wipeout1:09:21: What he’d like to see accomplished in pro big wave surfing, Thoughts on big wave webcasts, Russell’s 5-to-Finish Questions

Often, they say big wave surfing is a grown man’s game. But there have always been some rarified groms (and gals) that have been like, “Nah” to that sentiment. Big Wave World Tour surfer and zillion-time paddleboard champ, Jamie Mitchell, pops off Surfline’s new "Late Drop Podcast" with his first guest, Makua Rothman, a former Big Wave World Tour champion who shocked the surf world in 2002 when he caught a 66-foot-wave at Jaws…at 18 years of age. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to grow up Da Hui, how to kick asthma, and what Makua thinks the Big Wave tour is in dire need of—buckle up and press play.0:00: Intro, Beginning of Makua’s story of 66-foot-wave, Makua’s upbringing on the North Shore6:23: Growing up in Da Hui, Da Hui’s influence on North Shore, Jamie and Makua growing up with asthma, Getting into big waves as a child18:31: Getting into tow-in surfing, beginnings of big-wave safety/jet skis with Darrick Doerner. 25:26: Story of Makua’s 66-foot-wave at Jaws, Getting on to the Big Wave World Tour in 2014, Winning first event on Big Wave Tour, then winning in Chile, winning first big wave world title.36:55: Winning 2007 Sunset World Cup of Surfing, Young kids currently pushing limits, Makua’s big wave training program, the big wave community pushing each other, safety equipment/inflation vests50:58: Makua’s current approach to big wave surfing, Makua’s tow-in wave/near death experience at Cloudbreak. 1:00:58: Thoughts to improve current BWWT, incorporating engines into big wave surfing, big wave judging, The Eddie Aikau comp. 1:08:01: Makua’s opinion on best big wave in the world, heaviest big wave in world, wanting to surf Mav’s,most underrated big wave, next big wave discovery.

Today we have big wave surfer Will Skudin on the line to talk about geting the bid for a full time spot on the Big Wave World Tour this year. We talk to him about growing up as an east coast surfer on the big wave world stage and how his background in swimming helped prepare him for the mental toughness required for huge surf. Will is an awesome guy. I had the pleasure of sitting down with him and his girlfriend, Jen, last month while we were in Puerto Rico, and was really impressed with how modest and approachable he seemed considering the heroics of what he does for a living. I guess I assumed that big wave surfers were full of insane energy and adrenalin 24/7 and maybe some are, but not in this case. Will has a very calming way about him - anxiety doesn't seem like a word he's familiar with. When 40 foot walls of water pick you out of the line up to march toward, you have to be cool headed enough to hold your ground and trust your positioning versus paddling like mad for the horizon. That's what separates big wave surfers from the rest of us. We're looking forward to following Will's season this year as the first waiting period kicks of late next month. He's a testament to hard work, determination, and dedication and I can't wait to see it all unfold on the big wave world stage in 2017 Enjoy the show.

O Big rider e tutor da surfista Maya Gabeira falou sobre medo, machismo e aposentadoria Carlos Burle nasceu em Recife em 1967 e tem levado o nome de Pernambuco e do Brasil ao mais alto pico do surf mundial. Apaixonado pelo esporte desde criança e extremamente talentoso, por volta dos 20 anos ele começou um caso especial com as ondas grandes. Não tardou para os resultados começarem a aparecer. Em 1992, menos de 5 anos desde sua primeira ida ao Havai, ele surfou aquela que foi considerada a onda do século. Dali em diante foram dezenas de feitos e premiações: entre eles o campeonato mundial de ondas grandes na remada, conquistado em 1998, no México e a presença no Guinness Book, o livro dos recordes, com a maior onda surfada, em 2001, em Mavericks, Califórnia. No fim do mês passado, no auge dos seus 42 anos, ele cravou seu nome em mais um capítulo do surf mundial, tornando-se o primeiro campeão da história do Big Wave World Tour, competição em ondas gigantes que reúne os maiores big riders do planeta. Ele fala à Trip sobre seu filho de um mês, nascido no Havai, realização profissional, machismo, testosterona no surf, a surfista Maya Gabeira [de quem é tutor], medo e, claro, ondas grandes. "Não quero ficar lá fora fazendo volume; enquanto eu estiver lá no line-up eu vou estar mostrando pra próxima geração o que ela tem que fazer pra ganhar de mim. É o melhor que eu posso fazer por eles"
