South Coast madman Shane Ackerman joins us to talk about his life chasing some of the heaviest waves on earth. From a brutal wipeout at The Right that nearly ended it all, to scoring at Skeleton Bay, Shane opens up on what it takes to surf slabs at the edge of possibility.
We dive into his upbringing on the South Coast of NSW, how the local scene shaped him, and what drives him to keep pushing limits in waves most people wouldn’t paddle out in. Heavy stories, raw insight, and full respect to one of Australia’s underground hellmen.
The insane footage at The Right was filmed by Tim Bonython!
