2019/04/26

Full episode info and Show Notes - www.wearelookingsideways.comI go way, way back with legendary snowboard photographer and Transworld lifer Nick Hamilton. We first met in the mid-90s, and subsequently spent a glorious 6 year period putting together Whitelines magazine as part of a team that included friends and colleagues such as Ed Leigh, Chris Moran and Tudor ‘Chod’ Thomas. Nick was always destined for greater things, and it was no surprise when in 2001 he was headhunted by Transworld

Full episode info and Show Notes - www.wearelookingsideways.comI first heard about three times longboard world champion and current Carlsbad city council member Cori Schumacher in 2013, at the height of the Roxy/Steph Gilmore controversy. That was an episode that shone a harsh light on some of the more retrograde and toxic attitudes at play in the surf industry; and almost perfectly encapsulated the intricacies, nuances and challenge involved in debating issues of feminism, misogyny and sexism in an

So what happens when the one thing that has defined your life no longer serves you in the same way? When the quest you have dedicated your life to no longer fulfils you as it used to? And how do you cope when it has

Full episode info and Show Notes - www.wearelookingsideways.comThe word legend is bandied around too easily these days. Not least by me. But really, no other word is big enough to capture Herbie Fletcher’s personality, or what he represents to surf culture. As Jamie Brisick puts it, “"In rock and roll we've got Iggy Pop and Mick Jagger. In surfing we've got Herbie Fletcher.” So what makes Herbie Fletcher such a titan of surf culture? There’s the surfing, of course. Herbie is one of surfing’s great
