Jack Robinson

I really want to talk about how to get fit for foiling.

You work with some really incredible names, Gabriel Medina, Joel Parkinson, Jack Robinson, all these guys.

What do you think is the quality high performing athletes have to make them stand out?

Persistence, discipline, and commitment.

And we have a lot of people that follow the podcast that are learning how to do a new sport that are really proficient in the sport and they want to, you know, upgrade a little bit how they get prepared to get into the water.

So we'll talk about that.

You work with some really incredible names like Gabriel Medina, Joel Parkinson, like the list is really crazy, Jack Robinson, all these guys.

And I want to talk about strength exercises, mobility, recovery, supplements, all those things.

Last I checked, there was 3,700 comments in her comments section in a sign of support.

So then based on that, Julia Muniz, who is Jack Robinson's wife, also took to Instagram.

I think she re-shared Noah Klapp's post and then kind of provided her own commentary in addition to it, and she actually identified two other, the two other males that were previously unidentified, and they are surf, professional surf photographers, Ryan Craig, also known as Chachi, from Santa Cruz, and Dominic Moschiera.

They are both in their 40s.

Actually, a repeat of a final at Super Tubos.

Jack Robinson versus Joao Chianca.

Ooh, that is good.

Jeez, it'd be nice to see Jack get a few heat wins under his belt.

[laughs] Oh, God.

Heat three, Jack Robinson, Joao Jianga.

Uh, Joao.

This could be-

Occasionally someone slips through the cracks.

Like you get a Jack Robinson that manages to, and class usually prevails.

Like the guys that are consistently up that top class end of the rankings.

They, they tend to not fall off, but then you do sometimes see when they, when they do fall off, they struggle to get back on.

they're here

now.

But in terms of the men's side, so you've got from the CT, you've got Joel Vaughan, you've got Oscar Barrett, you've got Gio Cianca, Luke Thompson, Jake Marshall, Jack Robinson, Matthias Herdy, Samuel Pupo, Eli Hanneman, Crosby, Colapinto, all competing at this event.

So for anyone who's like trying to bank some points going, oh, yeah, I've got three events here to rack some points up.

I always, you know, I was a privilege.

It was a privilege to have made, you know, the tour, you know, the title runs that I contributed to and then later on, you know, Billabong Surfboards and making full-time for Andy's boards and, you know, there was, and as you said, you know, even, I was just thinking before, like Jack Robinson still to this day pulls out the footage of AI and I think it's at Bali and he's like, I want a board like that.

And I'm like, well, hey, he has, there's a lot of similarities, you know, jack surfing and that.

And he still, he goes, I want to surf like that.

Yeah, and that's what they wanted to do.

So in order to do this, they had to work with Olympic surfing medalist Jack Robinson to And he was called in to test whether or not this thing was going to work, and he was very skeptical.

But the goal of this stunt was to construct a surfboard that could actually catch waves and be filled with 10 liters of beer from the Gage Roads Brewery with their popular Single Fin Summer Ale, to be exact.

All right, pulling this off, not going to be an easy task.

Otherwise, the beer's not going to flow out of your draft system.

Well, they pulled it off.

And Jack Robinson says, I'm used to using precise surf equipment, so I didn't think this was going to work.

But he said in his own surfboard, like surfer total, this is total surfboard geekdom.

Um, uh, Griff, he's good.

Jack.

Who else? Joel Vaughn.

I always piss him off for sure.

4.5 trillion cigarettes are littered on beaches around the world.

And that's not good.

But there is a cigarette surfboard documentary starring Katie Simmers, Jack Johnson, and Mikey February.

That's out now.
