  • Dane!

    The content is good and entertaining, especially with Dane lately. He is so relatable and interesting to listen to. Minus one for the explicit language, which you would do fine without.

  • How is it

    people who basically talk for a living can’t get through a sentence without saying “like” one to four times? Is any effort ever made to try and curtail it, at least somewhat? It’s not a high bar to clear, yet… I subscribe to Stab Premium, so three stars total for their five stars content, but only visit the podcast rarely due to the “filler.” “He did about a billion turns on it” It was J-Bay, so maybe a dozen, tops? Ridiculous hyperbole is annoying, also.

    Oh my god I’m not sure if I’m rooting for him because of MC’s net or just because he’s a heel of a nice guy. Either way. Hilarious bet and Deserving Surfer. (MC don’t quit even if you lose.)

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Spectacular Vindication Of Dan Mann | StabMic Ep. 20
Q: Why does Dan think EPS/epoxy holds advantages over PU, and what's the future of PU in 50 years?
Dan argues that EPS/epoxy offers more controllable weight, better repeatability, and the opportunity to push design boundaries, whereas PU is harder to optimize and less predictable. He believes PU will still exist but will be joined by many other materials; in fifty years, there will be a wider range of options and ongoing budget-driven R&D that will shape adoption.
The Spectacular Vindication Of Dan Mann | StabMic Ep. 20
Q: What drew Kelly Slater to Dan Mann's boards and to Firewire's collaboration in 2015?
Kelly's interest grew from a combination of extending his own board program and recognizing the value of Dan Mann's shaping philosophy. The collaboration emerged after Dan's work caught the attention of Firewire's leadership, leading to a practical partnership where Slater's input helped refine the product, while Dan could scale his designs through Firewire's production capabilities.
The Skinny Meat Head Episode | StabMic Ep. 16
Q: What's coming up next for you in surfing and beyond?
Eithan talks about a Monster film project toward the end of the year and potential new Natural Selection events, with a focus on staying film-ready and chasing new opportunities.
Have High-Performance Surfboards Already Peaked? | StabMic Episode 09
Q: Why do some surfers move boards and others don't, and how does that affect board design?
Surfers who move boards are typically highly attuned to how a board feels in different waves and seek feedback to tailor performance; this feedback loop informs the shaper to iterate designs that fit the rider's style and the conditions they expect to encounter.
Rookie CTer Breaks Down Newcastle
Q: Oscar, what was that Newcastle week like and how did you reset after all the chaos?
Oscar describes the week as intense and nerve-wracking, then explains he focused on getting his body and mind back on track, with the support of his crew helping him reset after the tough heat and the surrounding drama.
