Crest Podcast Ep36 - Brad Gerlach

Published: Aug. 9, 2021, 2 a.m.

Hours after the Olympic surfing finals, and a day before his internet-busting chat with Kelly Slater, WCT legend Brad Gerlach joined Tom and Rhino for this amazing discussion - now available to Crest listeners as an unscheduled Summer bonus episode. One of the best voices in all of surfing, Brad here tells us about the game-changing moments he has witnessed in decades of being on or around the World Tour, about his new Waveki Programme (www.waveki.com) as well as passing his judgments on the spectacle that was surfing's Olympic debut. What was is like to surf Cortes Bank and Jaws on a seven-foot board and to carve mid-face? Who were the opponents he used to revere most on tour, and why does he think Italo Ferreira is 'the most improved surfer I've ever seen'? Keep listening to find out - as well as to access a one-off discount code for Waveki subscription which is shared in the last moments of the show. Crest in Partnership with Elusive would like to thank Llantwit/Gower shredder Chris Fowler for helping arrange this one, and for giving his own thoughts on the Waveki programme at the mid-point of the episode.
