Who should have won the Filipe v Julian Burleigh final? Well, 69% of @stab poll respondents believe the judges got it wrong — that Julian was the rightful winner of last week's Gold Coast Pro. However, when we polled a list of true surfing experts (Mick Fanning, Taj Burrow, Jake Paterson, Doug Silva, and Leo Fioravanti), they had a slightly different opinion. This week on The Drop, Stace G and Mikey C dissect everything that went down at the Gold Coast Pro, and eventually we're joined by Julian Wilson to hear his thoughts on a heroic return to Championship Tour surfing.
The WSL dropped a bomb on the surf world this week, and like Swedish captives, we all collectively cheered. On this episode of The Drop, Stab's co-founder Sam McIntosh is joined by the WSL's new CEO Ryan Crosby to discuss the League's major (and widely lauded) around for the 2026 CT season. Here's the TLDR version, ICYMI: - The Final Five is dead. - So is the mid-year cut - So is the non-elimination opening round - The 2026 Championship Tour will feature 12 events — with a late season ‘playoff'. - It will start at Bells Beach in April and end at Pipeline in December, where points will be weighted at 150%. - World Titles will once again be decided by cumulative points, not a single-day shootout. After that, Mikey and Buck hop on to discuss a few other stories from the week, including an incredible Greg Browning eulogy, a piece on lineup personalities, and an academic excuse for surfing more.

Se alguém ainda tem dúvidas de que o caminho para o desenvolvimento, a dignidade e a saúde (física e financeira) da população passam por esse aspecto, deveria dar uma olhadinha no que vem acontecendo com Saquarema na última década.A cidade é a única no mundo que sedia eventos das três divisões do circuito mundial de surf, com Qualifying Series, Championship Tour da WSL e Challenger Series acontecendo em abril, junho e outubro, respectivamente.

Para cobrar de quem você elegeu, manda essa ideia acompanhada de um #ficaadica.

1978 World Champion, WSL Commentator, and one of the Founders of the ASP/WSL, Wayne "Rabbit" Bartholomew joins us for the inaugural episode of The Lineup podcast's, On The Road Series. The On The Road audio-only format aims to bring you quicker, deeper and better insight by checking in with our commentators and experts on-site at our various WSL events, and airing these episodes as quickly as possible. These are the stories, the background, and behind-the-scenes from the mouths of those closest to the action on the ground. In today's episode, Bugs and Dave chat about the Challenger Series season opener, the Bonsoy Gold Coast Pro Presented by GWM, standouts of the event so far, and how the wave at Snapper brings out the best in everyone's surfing. They talk about the region of Coolangatta as one of the most potent real world experiments as a World Champion breeding ground, with the location being a home to elite surfers like WSL's first World Champion, Peter Townend, Chelsea Hedges, Stephanie Gilmore, Mick Fanning, and world-renowned shapers like Darren Handley and Jason Stevenson. They discuss the area and history of the Tweed River Sand Bypass and how Australia is pushing for legislation to protect its surf zones and surf breaks. Dave and Rabbit dive even deeper by discussing Bugs' autobiography, Bustin' Down the Door, and the incredible documentary of the same name, and how the surfer's of his generation influenced the progression of our high-octane modern day competitive surfing. Dave and Bugs bring it all together by coming back to Snapper and its integration back into the Championship Tour in 2025, the mindset of battle-hardened surfers relegated to the CS vs the momentum of the up-and-coming regional qualifiers, and calling the World Champions heat between ‘99 World Champ Mark Occhilupo, 2012 World Champ Joel Parkinson, 3x World Champ Mick Fanning, 8x World Champ Stephanie Gilmore, and 11x World Champ Kelly Slater.

Aren't there better ways to accomplish your Vision than by writing it down and just simply looking at it? In short, nope! But let's talk about that today. Thomas Joyner with Business on Purpose here, thanks so much for listening. Let me introduce you to Eli Hanneman. Now, call me a geek…whatever you want to do. But Eli Hanneman is 20 years old, and from Lahaina, Hawaii. I'm a surfing nerd and follow the professional surfing tour called the CT or Championship Tour. Eli has been a prodigy since he was 12 years old. Everyone knew he was going to be the next great Hawaiian surfer. But, when his professional career started at 17 he limped along and basically was stuck in the minor leagues for the past 3 years…until a month ago…. HE finally qualified. That day he posted a video to his social media. It's a video of the Note app on his phone dating back to May 22 of 2022. The date he decided to start writing down his vision and keeping it in front of him regularly. Every morning he woke up, and wrote down the date and the simple vision of I WILL QUALIFY in all caps. He did the same thing every single day, reviewed his vision until this past week he was able to write down, I QUALIFIED!!! He did it. That is the power of reviewing this thing? It's motivation and focus. It's keeping the important things in front of you and not getting distracted by the noise. It's pushing through frustrations and setbacks. And keeping what matters always at the forefront of your mind. So, if I were sitting down next to you and asked you, pull up your vision. What would you have to pull up? Would you answer, “Oh, I've got it in my head?” Sorry, but that's not good enough. If I pulled one of your team members aside and asked them, “Where are you guys headed as a business in the next 1-3 years?” How would they respond? How much detail could they come up with other than just some dry, bland, maybe even catchy rally cry? Your vision should be regularly reviewed as a team. By regularly, what I mean and what we recommend is a minimum of 6 times a year. “What, 6 times a year?” Yes, 6 times a year. You want it to roll of their tongues and to get to the point that the team begins to roll their eyes as you read it over. And yes you heard that right, as you read it over! It needs to be written down to the point that you can hold yourself accountable to it, as well. Here's the danger of NOT doing this. You end up somewhere you don't want to be. Author and pastor Dwight L Moody was famously quoted as saying, “Our greatest fear should not be of failure, but of succeeding at things that don't matter!” Let me read that again, “Our greatest fear should not be of failure, but of succeeding at things that don't matter!” What a profound and powerful thing to say! That's what Vision does. It sets your sights on things that matter. And is failure an option? Absolutely! It's scary to write something down that you could fail at. And, ultimately, that's why I think most people don't do it. It's easier to not know what you were targeting and not know if you failed than to get specific and then to chase after it. It's exposing and tough! But what's the possible alternative? Getting to the finish line and realizing you succeeded at something that doesn't matter or something you didn't want in the first place. So put some time on your calendar if you haven't already. Write the Vision down. Dive into what you want for your family and the freedom from work. Dive into financials and your products and services you offer. Walk through your ORG chart and your client avatar and then finish with culture. Who do you want to be as a business? Man if that doesn't fire you up and make you want to get running after it then keep working on it until it does! And then once you finish, put it on the calendar 6 times in the next year to pull it up and review the progress. Like Eli Hanneman, the power is in looking at it day after day after day and reminding yourself that success in things that matter is worth working for! I hope that makes sense today and is something that you will put the work in on. As always, if we can help, head on over to mybusinessonpurpose.com and reach out. We'd love to help!
