Reporting from Surf City El Salvador, former CT surfer and current WSL commentator and Rip Curl athlete, Rosy Hodge, joins us on the podcast for another ‘On The Road' edition of The Lineup. Rosy breaks down the latest shake-ups at Punta Roca, Isabella Nichols narrowingly making heat against Caroline Marks, upsetting her chances at a 3-peat win at the Surf City El Salvador Pro, as well as Rookie Bella Kenworthy defeating Erin Brooks in the Round of 16 despite her knee injury. Rosy and Dave both discuss standouts of the event, Ethan's progressive style on the rail, and Rosy's picks to win the event. Rosy riffs on gear talk, sharing board banter with insights on shapers like Marcio Zouvi, Matt Biolos and Britt Merrick on the ground in El Salvador. She explains why the evolution of women's surfing—especially in heavy waves—is what excites her most right now. Bringing a fresh, layered perspective to the mic—one shaped by years on the CT, life as a mom, and a front-row seat to the sport's biggest moments as a commentator, Rosy shares how she's finding more joy in surfing than ever before, from catching waves herself to watching her son, Hayes, discover the water, and what she's looking forward to most in the world of competitive surfing.

Water plays an important role in many religious practices and rituals; it's used in baptism, birth and burial. For surfers, the ocean is more than just a physical pursuit.

Do surfers have a unique relationship with God and with nature? Can the shaping and riding of surfboards provide meaning and healing after unspeakable tragedy?
