04/22/25 • 63 min
Welcome back to Pinch My Salt, the funniest surf podcast on the planet - where ex-pro surfers, core lords, and soft top haters unite. In this episode, we dive deep into the spicy world of surf industry tariffs, aging rippers with paddle priority, and the hidden costs of cheap China soft tops. Is the surf community ready to go core again? Will new import taxes finally kill off the mass-produced foamies? We unpack it all - from surfboard shaping conspiracies to the unspoken laws of the lineup. Plus, Sterling shares his hot takes on board flow, air game vs rail game, and how butt shots broke pro surfing.
We also tackle surf school soft tops, GoPro culture, and whether narcissists are ruining the ocean. This is surf culture comedy at its finest.
If you love surf podcasts, skateboarding rants, and comedy about the surf industry, smash that like and subscribe - and don't forget to find your inner Duke.

EP 69 | LEARN To Surf the RIGHT Way! | Pinch My Salt
What happens when two surf-obsessed cousins expose the unspoken truth about the surfing world? In this comedy-surf podcast episode of Pinch My Salt, titled Every Surfer’s Worst FEAR, we break down the most relatable, embarrassing, and terrifying moments in surf culture. From soft top surfers, stand-up paddlers, and foil board fails, to the sacred art of the bottom turn, we cover what every core surfer truly fears. Whether you're a snowboarder, skateboarder, surfer, or just a fan of funny podcasts, this episode blends surfing wisdom, hilarious commentary, and comedic storytelling with real insights into today’s surf industry. We react to fan-submitted surf clips, roast kooks, unpack why Kelly Slater, John John Florence, and Ethan Ewing ride the way they do, and why today’s surfers are all flash, no flow. This is the ultimate mix of surf comedy, spiritual surf philosophy, and chaotic storytelling. Whether you're dreaming of Hawaii barrels or dodging GoPro guys, this is the podcast for core lords and weekend warriors alike. Like, comment, subscribe, and share if you’ve ever lost a board or your dignity at your local break.
