Kai’s been up to some crazy stuff lately. Foil flips, windsurf competitions, and more, but he’s now on the North Shore, getting ready for winter with the intention of putting in some time at the legendary Banzai Pipeline. And being on that stretch of sand gave him the perfect opportunity to drop by the Pipeline Studios where Barton Lynch records his “Stoked Bloke” podcasts.
The main meat of the episode, above, is Barton’s discussion of his BL Blastoff, a video challenge for surfing groms around the world age 14 and younger to submit clips of themselves for coaching by BL himself. So if you’re a parent or frothing grom yourself, definitely give a listen to the first part of the episode, and get all the details about the BL Blastoff here.
If that’s not the case, skip ahead to the 27-minute mark to hear from Kai Lenny on why triple backflips on a foil are actually “less scary” than double backflips (really?), his plans for the winter, and more.
