Has any single person made a bigger difference for British board sports than Olympic snowboard medallist Jenny Jones? Arguably, her contribution to slopestyle's debut at the Sochi 2014 games was one of the most significant catalysts in spreading the popularity of surfing's mind-boggling sister discipline. As our beloved sport approaches its own date with Olympic destiny later this summer, what can our riders expect, and what of the jocks v purists dilemma? As an absolute ripper on the water too, and an ambassador for Bristol's The Wave, Jenny is uniquely placed to have a say on such things. Beyond that, though, it is the sheer stoke of Tom and Rhino's conversation with Jenny here that makes it a must-listen. A pure frother with a love of travel - including mishap, of course - and a passion for all things surf, Jenny's ocean story is every bit as enthralling as the chalet-hand to medal-winner tale we all know so well.
